Logan City Council's kerbside cleanup program comes to Jimboomba next month. Residents are urged to leave their unwanted large items and green waste out the weekend before the program begins on February 1. From then until February 12, the program collects at Jimboomba, Riverbend, Glenlogan, Flagstone, Veresdale Scrub, Veresdale, Cedar Vale, Mundoolun, Cedar Grove and Woodhill. From there, it moves on to Stockleigh, Logan Reserve, Tamborine, Cedar Creek, Logan Village, Buccan, Chambers Flat, Yarrabilba and Kairabar on February 15. Loganlea, Waterford, Waterford West and Park Ridge residents can have their bulky goods collected from March 1. Division 9 councillor Scott Bannan urged residents to make sure they had their unwanted goods on the kerb by 6am on the collection day. Council accepts hard waste like furniture. Wood products must be less than a metre long. They will also accept carpet and linoleum, stoves, dishwashers and washing machines with the doors removed. Small amounts of building materials can be left out, as well as mattresses and tins of dried paint without the lids. Leaves and grass clippings must be left in cardboard boxes, not plastic bags. Council said clippings and palm fronds must be cut into one metre lengths and tied in bundles. Cr Bannan urged residents to be responsible in leaving their waste out on the kerb. "Only put what's meant to be there," he said.. "Take advantage of it this one time you have got to get rid of stuff that otherwise you would have to take to the tip." Council announced in July 2020 that it would keep the scheme for at least another year, despite Brisbane axing its version in a move it said would save $13 million. Detractors said that could lead to an increase in illegal dumping. "We did not want to scrap it for residents," Cr Bannan said. "We looked at optimising it, trying to make it better. "It's not a perfect system, but there is no perfect answer to rubbish." Council announced last September that it would implement an optional green waste service from July, part of its new bin contract with Cleanaway Waste Services. Green waste bins will be collected on alternate weeks to yellow recycling bins, and will have no impact on existing waste and recycling collections. Cr Bannan said at the time that he wanted to make sure the service was optional for constituents. Cleanway Waste Management won the rubbish contract for eight years, with a two-year extension option.
