Waste collection is an important service that Council provides to its residents. Each year Council spends about $7.8 million to operate the eight Redland City transfer stations and a further $11.2 million collecting waste and recycling from local homes and businesses. This commitment maintains our strong environmental character by maximising resource recovery and reducing waste to landfill. This year’s Budget also includes funding for three waste projects:

  • Redland Bay transfer station upgrade $300,000
  • Mobile garbage bin purchase $125,000
  • Waste capital improvements $88,105
