Note: Gladstone Regional Council aligns with the Great Spring Clean held in September.
Our region often experiences hot and humid weather in early March and in the past, we've had heat waves. Participating in the Great Spring Clean in cooler months reduces fatigue, heat and dehydration risks to participants.
The community is still welcome to create their own Clean Up event in March via the Clean Up Australia Day website, however, they will be responsible for the disposal of waste to one of the region's waste facilities. Disposal fees may apply.
Council sincerely appreciates the communities ongoing support of Clean Up efforts in the Gladstone region and hopes that people will be able to register a site for the Great Spring Clean event in September.
Please follow the link for more details on the Great Spring Clean https://register.cleanup.org.au/join-a-clean-up.
