Which council collects Wellington Point?

Wellington Point is in Redland City Council, Queensland. That is the council that decides your collection day, supplies your bins and publishes the schedule — so it is the council name to look for on any official bin information.

This trips people up more than it should. Council boundaries rarely match the suburb names people actually use, and a suburb can sit on the edge of one council while the shops you drive to are in the next one. If you have just moved to Wellington Point, or you are checking on behalf of a rental, Redland City Council is who you are dealing with. Our full Redland City Council bin day guide has the detail , and Redland City Council’s own website is the source of record .

Why your street may differ from the rest of Wellington Point

Knowing the council is only half of it. Redland City Council divides its area into collection zones so the trucks can work through it across the week, and those zone lines do not follow suburb boundaries. A single suburb the size of Wellington Point is often split across two or more collection days, which is why a neighbour a few streets away can be a reliable-sounding but wrong source.

The other half is which week you are in. General waste here is weekly , while recycling is fortnightly , and garden waste is fortnightly (opt-in). Anything on a fortnightly cycle means counting weeks, and public holidays shift the count. The checker above returns the actual next date for each bin, so there is nothing to count.
