Feeling unsure about your kerbside organics bin? Here are 10 items that can go straight in -
1. Eggshells
2. Stale breads, bikkies, chips and crackers
3. Soiled Cardboard (pizza boxes)
4. Meat
5. Tissues and paper towel
6. Newspaper
7. Coffee grind, tea bags and tea leaves
8. Pet hair
9. Animal waste (not in plastic)
10. Veggie and fruit scraps
*Please remember to check the regulations of your local council as this is a general guide. Use the Recycle Right website when unsure - bit.ly/2pXnfR7
Wldn't Newspapers go in the nrml recyclin bin wit mags/pamphlets, etc?
I stopped putting food in the green bin because of the smell and the flies- as the council only collects it once a fortnight. I looked in the supermarkets for compostable bags to solve the smell problem, and was annoyed to find they sold only the degradable and not the compostable ones 😠
Handy info! Tried the Recycle Right link but when I put my suburb in nothing happens. Just thought I would pass that on.
Hi...I always get mixed feedback about cat waste and whether the actual 'litter' can be put into compost?
Jade N Josh Reynolds this is saying you can put food in green bin
stale bread i always put out for the birds and they love it. don't know if i should but they eat it anyway
Can animal waste go straight into the bin?
VERY GOOD ADVICE.

QUIZ TIME! Which bin do these items go into? Comment your guesses below and we'll answer tomorrow.
You were all correct! These aerosol cans can go in the recycling bin! Make sure the cans are empty though!
yellow. is it true according to a recent tv show war on waste that all plastic bags deposited in supermarkets to be recycled goes to wast and is NOT RECYCLED as shown with a gps??? are we wasting our time saving plastic??
I didn't realise,especially about the asthma inhalers. So glad I found this page. 😊
That is a very good question - I don't buy any of the above item, but I would still like to know KESAB.
I would like know. I would have thought normal bin. Not that I buy aerosol products because of the fumes.
recycle BUT only if theyre empty. the same goes for asthma inhalers.
