- Geelong have recently implemented a trial of new food waste bins in an area of Lara, the new bins come in 60 and 120 litre sizes and have orange lids. If the trial is successful the whole council will get a new food waste bin

Amazing video mate 907 is a pretty old truck!😂😂
Geelong's food waste bins are way larger then ours in Victoria,Canada.
Absolutely incredible! Those bins are amazing!
Thanks!
smol bins
Nice never seen this before
Sorry for all the comments, so hyped, generous of him to grab the bin at 2:16
All good mate, yes very

Cheers buddy

Good catch I never knew Geelong within your food waste trial
Awesome video mate.
We have Fogo at are house it's very efficient but we still have a full waste bin every fortnight
Does your fogo go in a green waste bin? Or do you have a separate bin like this?
Yes fogo stands for food organics and garden organics so we have 3 bins
140 Litre red general waste bin collected fortnightly
240 litre yellow recycling bin collected on alternatives fortnight's and a
240 l lime green Fogo bin collected weekly
This is awesome!
Thanks mate!!
@@GunzelingGarbo102 no worries
Wow a four wheel cleanaway truck
There’s something on your face.
Nope, still there…
It’s still there…
Still there… down a bit… up a bit… you know what? never mind 😛
The lids are so stiff still, makes them do lid stands lol
Haha yeah, I think there was about 4-5 lid stands
Wonder if they empty the truck at same place as green waste
Possibly, but I’d presume they have a different facility for it
love it love it love it! weird they don’t introduce fogo but each council to their own. love how Geelong have different coloured lids, like the red/orange lids in innerwest will be garbage and the Burgundy coloured lids are food waste here! awesome vid
Thanks mate, it’s good there are still councils with different colours these days, and I agree they should’ve made one fogo bin
It’s a good little system ngl but the fact some people would have problems moving them, filing them up and some not having the space to me they should just have FOGO put the food scraps in with the green waste
4:25 if you can pick the bin up with ease they must be tiny.
So small bins
Yeah, looked very hard to grab
Haha this is like a RL Citywide have signage on one side which is quite unprofessional and kinda funny anyways grate vid keep it up mate still think they should do FOGO
Personally I am 100% in favour of this idea 5 bins would be great especially in rural greater Geelong those properties would be able to fit 5 bins unlike inner city greater Geelong
I see this as pointless lol, seems like the driver was having a hard time standing those 60L bins
putting it in the green bin would be far easier, people will now have too many bins - not that I’m complaining though 😂
Wow those 60L are so tiny!!! You only have so much area available to wrap the grabs around the sides, anything too out of position and you're holding onto the wheels or lip haha Interesting to see the new trio of household bins, the 60/120/240 sizes plus the different lid colours is a nice sight being out of the ordinary. I'm guessing they trialled both the 60L and 120L food bins in different streets to get a mix of feedback. Also a little different running a food waste only program, been a couple councils here in Sydney that have done food waste only with units, but can't think of any that trialled it with houses. Seeing the whole size of the truck at 8:55 makes me wonder how much of that body volume is actually filled with material, seems to me you only need maximum 5 cubic metre capacity for this job lol Not sure if you captured any photos of the garbage, recycle and food bins together in a set, but I'd be keen to have a picture showing them as a group if you can send one to me =D
Haha this is a job that does take a bit of precision operating, not too sure if a bouncy old SuperiorPak is the best suit for it but it seems to go alright. I did take a picture of all three lined up together when I was out there, but in all honesty it seems to have vanished from my computer which sucks. I’m not too sure how practical the food waste system is, I would think just am having a regular fogo service is more practical. I don’t think he’s filling up the entire truck based on the size of the area he’s doing, if it were to become a council wide service they could easily get it done with 2-3 trucks no problems I would think.
Tbh I don’t see why they didn’t introduce a glass bin and just change the green waste to FOGO, mainly because I can see that not too many bins were too full. But apart from that awesome video mate
I think it's a very very good idea personally imagine a house say in rural greater Geelong they have a lot of green waste and a lot of say young children like babies or toddlers and they don't eat all of there dinner cause they can be fussy eaters sometimes and also even with the container diposit scheme there will still be certain glass items like wine bottles and jam jars and I think to keep putting them in the yellow lid bin will just keep creating a risk of contaminating more recycling like paper and cardboard
@@will823 Bruh.. you can still put your food scraps in a fogo bin mate 😂😂😂
Amazing mate!! The trucks massive for the size of those bins and the small amount that's in it
Thank you mate! Yeah the bins look too small!

The foods I seen in Geelong they have them but in Geelong in my area they don’t have them it’s weird
I know your not much a fan of the individual food waste bins but what do you think about the new glass bins that are coming soon
I think glass bins are an alright idea since they have a good enough reason
I assume there going to get more big Dennis eagles like the recycling truck or ivecos
Just curious gunzeling Garbo 102 did you ask the driver of the truck what he thought about the trial
no, I didn’t want to bother him
Okay are you going to film more down there soon once COVID has calmed down a little and also when is Geelong getting glass
I wish they done it in Queensland :(
cool but a bit silly, little 60L for food waste... i think they should of just gotta FOGO.
Yeah fogo would be better
Was the van following the truck delivering news bags to use
Will all geelong get these
If the trial is successful
Wow max I think it's silly doing the 60l as the food waste too small for the arm needs to be a 120l great video I really enjoyed it is it possible if you could get more of food waste? I love how Geelong has 4 different bins while most councils in WA still only have the 2 bin system it shows how far behind WA is😂
I think they should just have a Fogo bin for food and green waste! And yes the 60l are way to small! Still a very cool thing to video. WA need to step up their game lol
Nah 60l. is perfect in my opinion. The arm can still grab it. Another 120L. would be far too big and would piss off even more residents, I mean who has the space to store five bins. Besides, if collected weekly which I assume, a 60l. is enough, people don‘t need a weekly 120l. bin for just food waste lol, who‘s gonna fill that up. Another good thing about the 60l. bins is that you can actually store them in the kitchen. But just making the green waste bin weekly and Fogo would be so much easier than another bin……
@@laurin4339 yeah having green and food in the same would be far better, I have no clue why they had an extra bin! 120l would be too big but the 60l seemed a bit tedious to collect. Yes I do agree they are handy as you could keep them inside.
Laurin nobody is gonna put these 60L bins in the kitchen. They’ll stink, and aren’t pleasant.
@@Waste_Around_Melbourne they did give a kitchen caddy to the residents too
Cool. Is this truck from the previous contract? If anything they should get sidepaks or buchers for them small bins.
Ehm Sidepaks aren‘t a thing anymore…..haven‘t been for the last 11 years lol. Last Sidepak to be built were the Hornsby ones. I doubt Geelong will get new Buchers anytime soon since they have a fleet of relatively new Dennis Raptors.
@@laurin4339 yeh lol, like you said those Sidepaks are long gone. I mean they were great trucks but I guess they aren’t really made more as overtime there have been better stronger and more efficient trucks.
This truck is one of the older recycle trucks
Those 80s are SMALL
Excellent video I upload a video to is a moonee valley truck in Wyndham
wow 5 bins they should just do a 3 in system
@perthaussiegarbo
No the Vic gov wants all councils to have 4 bins but this council did a trial on food bins and if successful will get a glass and food bin
The 4 bin system idea actually will reduce contamination.
As glass breaks and gets stuck to things so by separating it u get cleaner recycling.
Food waste tho should be fogo
Just curious southaussiegarbo 2054 are you the bodra
@@will823 nope but that person is a friend 😂
How stupid is the council why not just add it to there garden waste bins and make it a FOGO bin.
Good luck Geelong with your 5 bins
Agreed, I somewhat don’t think the trial will be successful
I hope it is I would love to see videos of 5 trucks
Awesome video max loved it, those cute 60’s were something different to see picked up but a bin just for food is too much, they should just introduce Fogo.
Cheers mate, that’s what I was thinking, the bins are far to small and fogo would be far simpler
@@GunzelingGarbo102 ye, I really want my council to introduce Fogo.
@@GunzelingGarbo102 when you coming to Brimbank?
@@Ari.h1m hopefully before Christmas, that might be my next garbage truck filming outing
@@GunzelingGarbo102 do you know what date? I could help with a few areas you can go, days and trucks.
Was it a success?
I believe not
Doesn’t that make it 5 bins after glass?
Indeed
Really cool to se geelong trialing it out also when did they get a mini axel?
I believe this truck has been around for a while, although it was in Melbourne for a little while
@@GunzelingGarbo102 that went to Moonee Valley then when are contact got renewed it obviously went back to Geelong
@@MelbourneGarbo. yeah was in hobsons bay too
Yep there’s obviously a video of that truck in Hobsons by me 😂
Interesting to see the truck move around
@@GunzelingGarbo102 Why don’t they just put food waste in the green bin also why burgundy lids for garbage? Could just have 140L garbage and 240L for recycling and for units 120L red 240L recycle and skinny 140L for FOGO like my council?
At first I never believed that there was a food waste bin trial at all. Once I've seen this video, now I believe it lol. Isn't this the same truck I filmed in Hobsons Bay doing recycling? Back then I don't think I noticed the unit number at all. I think it's stupid to have a 60L food waste bin, it can get full easily. What type of bins r the trial food waste bins? FOGO better not having a separate bin, it's very weird and stupid imo. But having a separate bin for food waste is interesting. Just noticed there's signage on the other side of the truck. Ah we finally have some common sense of using a 120L food waste bin. Signage looks okay, hope the trial goes well. How long does the trial go for approx? Well if the trial successful looks like there will be 5 bins for U! The 11 minutes always fly by quick, I wanna see more of this. I'm keen to see the Wyndham vid soon as well :)
Haha, I only believed it until I saw an article about it. Yes I believe it is the one you videoed, must have come back for the food bins. Yeah I agree they should have one for food and green waste, makes more sense! The 120l ones look far better and looked easier to collect! Pretty sure the trial is for one year, if successful Mum might make me move some of my own bins out haha
In most areas with a separate food waste collection, they use a 23 litre caddy. Most people don’t even fill that
There sulo 60L
@@Merri-bekGarbo yeh ik
What’s the point having a bin for food waste like seriously majority of those bins had like 1-2 bags some were empty… why not put the food waste into the green waste bins like all the other councils do. Very silly to have a bin just for food waste
Lmao that is what I was thinking, they should just do a Fogo
Yeah far simpler to have it all in one bin, especially since they plan on getting glass bins as well!
@@GunzelingGarbo102 the glass bins will just become another bin for ppl to use as garbage. I can’t see how the glass collections will work in some councils… I’m just waiting for it to be 1 big stuff up
@@Garbo-nb9ng especially the poorer councils, they won’t know wtf to put in it. I’ve seen in Laverton (run down junkie hobsons bay) there has been bags, grass and all sorts of crap in the purple bins.
@@Ari.h1m it’s not really the fact they won’t know what to put in them it’s more the fact they change the other bins around when rolling out the glass bins. Nobody wants 2 weeks worth of rubbish so I really do understand why they put it into the purple bins. For the 4 bin system to really work decently the councils need to get out there support the residents with extra room in there bins
Great video do more of these
Cheers mate
Are they still doing this
