We provide general waste, liquid waste (including grease trap cleaning), recycling, and organic waste services tailored to your venue’s requirements.

Common Hospitality Waste Challenges

Running a successful hospitality venue comes with unique waste-related challenges:

Fats, oils and grease buildup in grease traps
Food waste pickup requirements
Maintaining high hygiene standards for patrons and staff
Managing peak periods and potential waste overflow
Navigating EPA, OH&S, and local council regulations
Solutions for reducing FOGO going into landfill

We understand these challenges and solve them with efficiency, compliance, and care.

FOGO & Green Waste

Closed-Loop Organic Recycling for Events

Events generate significant volumes of organic waste, from food scraps at food truck festivals to coffee grounds, compostable packaging, and landscaping offcuts. At Corio Waste, we make it easy to divert these materials from landfill through our FOGO (Food Organics and Garden Organics) recycling service.

We provide purpose-fit green waste and FOGO bins, clear signage to reduce contamination, and scheduled pickups throughout your event.

What sets Corio Waste apart is our ability to deliver a complete closed-loop solution for organic waste. All collected FOGO material is processed at our own Western Composting Technology (WCT) facility, located in Victoria.

At WCT, organic waste is transformed into high-quality compost through an advanced, EPA-compliant in-vessel composting process. This nutrient-rich compost is used in agriculture, landscaping, and land rehabilitation, supporting a truly circular economy.

By choosing Corio Waste’s FOGO service, you can:

Significantly reduce landfill contributions
Improve your event’s environmental impact and reporting
Comply with local waste diversion and sustainability goals
Support regional composting and soil regeneration efforts

Our team works with you to determine appropriate bin sizes and placement, reduce contamination rates through targeted signage, and track diversion rates for your post-event sustainability report.

Whether you’re hosting a zero-waste festival or simply aiming to be more sustainable, Corio Waste makes organic waste recovery practical, measurable, and impactful.
