Frequently asked questions
What counts as recycling contamination?
Anything in the yellow bin that does not belong: food soiled packaging, soft plastics, clothing, electrical items. It matters because a contaminated load from Moorina can send a whole truck to landfill, and Moreton Bay can tag or refuse repeat offending bins.
What is FOGO and does it apply here?
FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Moreton Bay's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.
Should I rinse containers before recycling?
A quick rinse is enough; empty and free of chunks beats spotless. It keeps Moorina's fortnightly recycling load clean without wasting water, and it keeps your bin from getting ripe between collections.

Quick tips for bin night
- Summer bins need managing. A Moorina red bin in January is a different beast. Bag food scraps tight, keep the bin in shade if you can, and get it out every single week even when it is barely half full.
- Caps off, lids on. Small plastic caps come off the bottle and go in the red bin. Metal lids on glass jars can stay put. It is a small rule that trips up a lot of people.
- The lid has to close. An overflowing bin with the lid propped open often gets skipped, or spills down the street. If it will not shut, it will not go.
