Christmas and New Year cause the longest delays

The period between Christmas and New Year is the most disruptive for collections. Many councils run reduced schedules over the summer break, with some pickups delayed by several days. The official council website is the most reliable source during this stretch.

Tip: Set a reminder for the week before Christmas to check your council's holiday schedule. The window for putting out general waste before the break fills up fast.

Frequently asked questions

Can broken glass go in the recycling bin?

No. Unbroken bottles and jars belong in the yellow bin, but broken glass is a hazard for sorting staff. Wrap it in newspaper, seal it in a bag and put it in the general waste bin.

How do I get rid of furniture or a mattress in Jimboomba?

Bulky items never go in kerbside bins. Logan City runs a hard waste service, either booked on demand or on scheduled dates depending on the area; the booking form and accepted items list are on the council website. Charities collect saleable furniture free.

Are the bins different if I rent in Jimboomba?

No, bins attach to the property, not the resident, so renters use whatever Logan City supplies to the address. If bins are missing or broken at a new rental, report it to the council or your property manager; replacement is usually free and does not need the owner.

Quick tips for bin night

  • Break down those boxes. Overfilling the recycling bin means the lid will not close, and Logan City's trucks can skip a propped open bin. Break down the boxes and save yourself the drama.
  • Rinse before you bin it. Your recycling does not clean itself. A ten second rinse now saves sorting staff hours later and keeps a Jimboomba bin from becoming a science experiment between fortnightly collections.
  • Set a reminder now. Missed bin night in Jimboomba means a two week wait for the fortnightly bins. One calendar reminder costs you nothing. The two week smell costs something.
