FOGO - your questions answered.

Council has received Draft Budget 25/26 feedback submissions with comments relating to the decision to implement FOGO as part of the Draft 2025/26 Budget.

In 2020, the Victorian Government released its 10 year circular economy policy, 'Recycling Victoria'. As part of these changes, the policy and legislation has mandated changes to kerbside collections.

By 2030, all 79 councils in Victoria will be required to move to a four-stream-system that separates waste into:

• Food and garden organics (green lid)
• Mixed recycling (yellow lid)
• General rubbish (red lid)
• Glass recycling (purple lid)

To ensure all residents have access to information, Council has developed a full FAQ page on its website. For more information we encourage you to visit the FOGO - your questions answered | Glenelg Shire Council webpage
