Project resources
GET READY, SET, FOGO!
FOGO is not just about choosing the right bin, it's about changing the way we think about waste!
Bega Valley Shire Council are grateful to all Councils who provided input prior to our FOGO rollout in October 2018. Resources that were shared with us, made our job so much easier, so thank you to all those amazing councils that helped along the way. It’s now our turn to give back. We are sharing our resources to help your Council to READY, SET, FOGO.
