Correct bin: General Waste (red lid).
Disposable nappies and baby wipes are general waste, even the ones labelled biodegradable, which do not break down in a standard kerbside system.
Avoid: Don't flush wipes, even flushable ones. They contribute to blockages in the sewer network.
FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Bundaberg Regional's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.
