FOGO Advocates
The Penrith community has been FOGOing like legends ever since they adopted the 3-bin service. By supporting the community with correct sorting, everyone’s playing a part in diverting waste from landfill and reducing the negative impacts on the environment while providing resources to be reused again. FOGO waste is turned into compost which is used in the Penrith community.
The rural businesses below are doing their part by reminding us that the FOGO bin can handle more than just food organics and garden organics by adding a FOGO stamp to their cardboard takeaway boxes. With a simple stamp, they’re helping encourage their patrons to be a legend and FOGO. Did you know cardboard boxes can go in the green-lidded FOGO bin? This stamp will remind you that it can!
Cardboard boxes aren’t the only kind of packaging you can put in your FOGO bin. The list includes:
- Cardboard burger boxes
- Pizza boxes
- Burger wrapping paper
- Fish and chip paper
- Paper bags, serviettes and tissues
- Food leftovers
