Around 130 kilograms of food waste is thrown out per person in Australia each year.
Most of it could be diverted through a FOGO service or home composting. Food in landfill breaks down without oxygen and releases methane, a potent greenhouse gas.
A clean, dry pizza box is fine in the yellow bin. If the base is soaked with grease, tear off and recycle the clean lid and put the greasy half in general waste. This rule is the same across every VIC council, Whittlesea City included.
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Whittlesea City runs a hard waste service, either booked on demand or on scheduled dates depending on the area; the booking form and accepted items list are on the council website. Charities collect saleable furniture free.
A quick rinse is enough; empty and free of chunks beats spotless. It keeps Epping's fortnightly recycling load clean without wasting water, and it keeps your bin from getting ripe between collections.
