It was also trialled in 1,000 homes across Raceview and Bellbird Park since 2021 as a core service and would be available to more Ipswich residents from next year. Growth, Infrastructure and Waste Committee Chair Ipswich Mayor Teresa Harding said FOGO has been operating in Ipswich as an opt-in user pays service for several years. Ipswich City Council will be setting the standard as the first council in Queensland to adopt a citywide Food Organics Garden Organics (FOGO) waste collection as a part of a three-bin core service.
