Never bag your recycling. Put items directly in the bin..
Plastic bags prevent automated sorting lines from processing the contents. The bag and everything inside it typically ends up in landfill regardless of what's inside.
Example: Tins, bottles, cardboard: loose in the yellow bin, not in a bag.
FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Coffs Harbour City's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.
