Compost made from kerbside organics is used on farms, parks and roadsides.
When your green bin material is processed, it becomes a soil conditioner that returns nutrients to the ground and reduces the need for synthetic fertiliser.
Collection routes are planned street by street, so two nearby addresses can sit on different runs, and near a boundary they can even sit in different councils. Collection days in New Farm vary by street, so check your exact address. Confirm with your own address rather than copying the neighbours.
FOGO means food scraps composted together with garden waste in a green bin. New Farm's standard lineup does not currently include that bin, so food waste goes in general waste for now; councils across QLD are progressively adding organics services.
Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Brisbane 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.
The streets around here all have their own bin days. Here are the nearby suburbs worth bookmarking.
