The Kiama community is celebrating a win in waste sorting, with over 99% of households getting our food organics and garden organics (FOGO) sorted right. That’s a big thumbs up for the community! But with new EPA guidelines rolling out, keeping up with what goes where can start to feel like trying to crack a code.

So, how do we make sure we’re all in the loop? The answer might be simpler than you think—visuals! Those colourful, easy-to-follow guides from the council are like having a cheat sheet for your bins. They break down what goes in your green, red, and yellow bins, making it way easier to avoid those little mistakes that can mess up a whole batch of compost.

The best part? You don’t need to be an expert to get it right. Just pop the visual guide on your fridge or near your bins, and you’re good to go. It’s like having a friendly reminder every time you toss something out.

Kiama, you’ve got this! Let’s keep using those visuals to stay informed and keep our community clean and green—without needing a degree in waste management.
