Food and garden waste recycling tips

You can recycle food scraps in your green waste bin - the same bin you use for grass clippings and garden prunings. Things like fruit and vegetables, meat, fish and bones, coffee grounds, eggs and dairy, bread, rice, pasta and paper towels can be recycled. 

If you don’t have a kitchen caddy to collect your food scraps in, you can request online.

Food scraps and garden prunings from your green waste bin will be taken to a commercial composting facility to be turned into compost for use on farms, vineyards and community gardens around Victoria.
