Over 1 billion coffee cups are used in Australia each year, and very few are recyclable.
The plastic lining makes standard takeaway cups non-recyclable in kerbside bins. Compostable alternatives are growing, but need commercial composting facilities to process properly.
FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Redland City's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.
No, bins attach to the property, not the resident, so renters use whatever Redland City supplies to the address. If bins are missing or broken at a new rental, report it to the council or your property manager; replacement is usually free and does not need the owner.
General waste catches up next week, but Redland City collects recycling and garden organics fortnightly, so a missed night there can mean a two week wait. If a bin is overflowing as a result, Redland City may offer a special collection; check their website for the process.
