Return soft plastics to a collection point rather than the kerb.
Bags, wrappers and films tangle in machinery and cannot be processed in kerbside recycling. Dedicated drop-off programs handle them separately when they are running.
Example: Bread bags, pasta packets and bubble wrap: collect them at home and take them to a participating retailer.
FOGO means Food Organics and Garden Organics: food scraps composted along with garden waste in the green bin. Whether Toowoomba Regional's green bin accepts food depends on its current rollout; the lid sticker is the quickest check, and the council website confirms it.
It depends on the holiday and the council. When Toowoomba Regional shifts collections, everything from the holiday onward that week usually moves one day later. An address search during a holiday week shows any adjusted dates the council has published.
General waste catches up next week, but Toowoomba Regional 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, Toowoomba Regional may offer a special collection; check their website for the process.
