Isaac and Central Highlands
Councils
New Waste Collection Contract
On 28 May 2019, both Isaac Regional Council
(IRC) and the Central Highlands Regional Council
(CHRC) awarded the contract for kerbside
collection services to North Queensland Resource
Recovery (Cleanaway) for a period of seven years
with the option of three 12-month extensions.
The contract will offer a saving over current costs.
The new contract will feature new trucks across all
services. The new side lift trucks will be Euro VI
specifications which will offer safer, cleaner, more
efficient and quieter operation.
After securing approval from the Australian
Competition and Consumer Commission, the
procurement process was carried out jointly with
both Councils using the services of Kavney
Consulting to provide support across a number of
areas. The intention to procure jointly, was to
enable savings through economy of scale and
shared costs with both Councils’ current contracts
expiring simultaneously in October 2019. In the
procurement process, a discount was requested
should the contractor be awarded both contracts.
This collaborative process also resulted in each
Council having separate contracts to the
successful tenderer.
The evaluation process was very rigorous, with an
evaluation team which at IRC comprised the
Manager Waste Services, Projects Co Ordinator
Waste Services, Chief Finance Officer and Kavney
Consulting, and which evaluated the non-price
elements of tenders, making up 60% of the final
scores, before considering the prices.
For CHRC, the evaluation team consisted of the
General Manager Communities, Manager
Planning and Environment, Coordinator
Procurement, Kavney Consulting with the probity
advisor role being fulfilled by Preston Law.
All tenderers were required to attend an interview
with each council and give a presentation of their
waste data reporting systems, which are a
requirement of the contract specification and to
discuss any departures or areas which each
Council requested further clarity on.
Both Councils are currently working through the
mobilisation process with joint meetings being held
with Cleanaway at Clermont, which is equidistant
from the two Councils’ Headquarters at Moranbah
and Emerald.
The cost savings of the new contract for the
Central Highlands Regional Council reflect a
saving of $2.45m over the term of the contract
based on the current 2019 contract. For Isaac
Regional Council this is a saving of $2.25m.

Each Council would like to thank JJ Richards &
Sons Pty Ltd for their service over the past 10
years and is looking forward to the new contract,
cost savings and the opportunities that a new
service provider will bring to the region during a
time that waste is on the forefront of everyone’s
mind.

Collection Trucks Unveiled – 2/10/19
A tonne of work in the kerbside collection space is
now rolling toward reality as the new contract is
set to wheel out from Monday morning across the
Isaac region. The seven-year $17 million contract
will see nearly 5 million residential wheelie bin
pickups and 40,000 bulk bin pickups over its life.
The five new recycling and waste trucks will do
more than 150,000 km each year – about the
same as travelling round the world four times –
across the Isaac region.
Isaac Regional Council Acting Mayor Kelly Vea
Vea said Cleanaway has made a fundamental
commitment to ensure the company keeps jobs
local as a top priority.

council team members
“We are very grateful to the service JJ Richards
has provided our region for the past 10 years and
we look forward to the service Cleanaway will
provide to our region from Monday onwards for the
next seven years,” she said.
“Ensuring household rubbish and recycling is
picked up outside residents’ homes in the Isaac
region is very much part of our core business.
“The average family of two adults and two children
usually throws out up to 10kg each week in the
red-top bin and another 4-5kg in the yellow top bin
each fortnight.”
Cleanaway General Manager of Northern
Australia, Brad Gornall, said they are looking
forward to starting services to homes and
businesses in the Isaac region from 7 October.
“I’m pleased that we’re investing in the local
community by providing local employment, and
using local suppliers, and that through our custom
built Cleanaview on-board management system,
we’re able to provide council with more accurate
data and a clearer view of service levels across
the life of the contract,” Mr Gornall said.
“We’re proud to be working in close partnership
with Isaac Regional Council to deliver a safe and
reliable service to the local community.”
There will be an improved service change for
residents in St Lawrence, Greenhill, Ilbilbie,
Carmila, Clairview, Nebo and Glenden, thanks to a
new special dual-purpose truck. There are no
changes to schedules in Clermont, Dysart,
Middlemount and Moranbah.
Council will also have a dedicated recycling truck
that will be used across the region in towns such
as Dysart, Middlemount and Moranbah.

for a sustainable future
On 7 October 2019, Cleanaway commenced
kerbside general waste and recycling services with
Isaac and Central Highlands Regional Council.
The new seven-year contract with the option of
three 12-month extensions will see almost 5
million residential wheelie bin pickups each year.
The new contract is expected to save councils
between $200,000 and $350,000 each year while
employing the local community. So far 14 local
residents have been employed to support the
contract with Cleanaway committed to keeping
jobs local.
The fleet is fitted with state-of-the-art Cleanaview
technology, which gives the councils access to an
online portal to view the location of vehicles, near
real time collection and scheduled pickup
information, and importantly – they will be able to
resolve more queries from residents on the first
call.
The fleet of 13 is expected to do more than
150,000 km each year which is equivalent to
travelling around the world four times over.
Cleanaway will service approximately 21,000
residents across 58,000km2 in Moranbah under
Isaac Regional Council as well as 30,000
residents across 60,000km2 in Emerald, Central
Highlands Regional Council.
Cleanaway General Manager of Solid Waste
Services Northern Australia, Brad Gornall, said,
“We are excited to have started providing services
to homes and businesses in both the Isaac and
Central Highland regions. I’m pleased that we
continue to invest in the local community by
providing employment and using local suppliers,
and that through our custom built Cleanaview on-
board management system, we’re able to provide
councils with more accurate data and a clearer
view of service levels across the life of the
contract. We’re proud to be working in close
partnership with both councils to deliver a safe and
reliable service to the local community.”

LGAQ Study Tour
(Melbourne)
Recycled content in roads and
infrastructure 26-28 Nov 2019
Program Overview - The Victorian government
has supported the use of recycled content in roads
and infrastructure for over a decade. In Melbourne,
industry and local government asset owners have
embraced this opportunity and actively included
these products into their normal operations.
Recycled asphalt, glass, crumb rubber from tyres
have for many years been actively included in
roads and infrastructure. The recent additional
attention to plastics has added another opportunity
to extract value from this waste stream leading to
greater diversion from landfill.
The "Study Tour to Melbourne" provides
participating councils the opportunity to hear from
experts about technologies creating sustainable
uses for recycled content. Participants will be able
to capture this Victorian practice and experience,
and in conjunction with industry, to rapidly transfer
this to Queensland.
Objectives and outcomes
Through meetings with key stakeholders in
Victoria including local and state government,
Australian Asphalt Pavement Association (AAPA)
Members, contractors, engineers and waste
managers, participants will gain a clear
understanding on what has been done, what can
be transferred, best practice and the highest
priorities for Queensland.
The Study Tour will include:
Gaining experience on the use of waste and recycled materials in municipal operations and assets
Identifying standards and norms to be adopted and constraints that could be a barrier
Establishing networks and potential partnerships to expedite decisions for change.
Planned Meetings with Industry & AAPA

drumMUSTER Footprint Increases
The Central Highlands Regional Council is
increasing the number of drumMUSTER sites in
the region.
Rolleston and Duaringa area farmers will now
have ongoing access to deliver drums at the local
waste sites. Both sites are having compounds
constructed in the new site refurbishments.
These two sites will complement other depots at
Capella, Lochlees and Springsure. All sites will
receive drums during open hours giving clients the
best opportunity to deliver drums for recycling.
Central Highlands Regional Council farmers have
delivered over 232,000 drums since the program
commenced. Uptake in recent years has been
consistent and the new sites will add the
opportunity for increased participation and higher
returns.

Townsville City Council
Hervey Range Tip Shop
Townsville City Council is in the final stages of
engaging a contractor for the Hervey Range Tip
Shop.
The shop will be part of the new Resource
Recovery Centre (RRC) and is part of a significant
Council investment into the Hervey Range Waste
Management Facility.
Townsville Water and Waste Committee Chair Cr
Russ Cook said the Hervey Range Tip Shop
adopted the principles of a circular economy.
“The shop creates a chance for household goods
that would normally go to landfill to find a new
home and be reused,” Cr Cook said.
“These are things like unwanted couches,
televisions and other household items.”
Councillor Mark Molachino said there were plenty
of reasons for residents to take full advantage of
the shop.
“Taking your items into the Tip Shop means fewer
quality items end up in landfill,” Cr Molachino said.
“It also gives residents and visitors the chance to
buy a variety of high-quality second-hand goods at
one convenient location.”
The construction of the Hervey Range Tip Shop
has supported 10 jobs.
Work at the Hervey Range Tip Shop is expected to
commence in February next year, pending council
approval and the award of contract.
How residents use their bins with a
waste audit conducted
Townsville City Council is wheelie putting the
focus on how residents use their bins with a waste
audit conducted across the city.
AECOM were engaged to conduct a review of how
waste and recycling bins are used across the city
and the results show that recycling education will
help alleviate pressure on Council’s waste
facilities.
Townsville Mayor Jenny Hill said the audit is
important for Council as it looks to improve waste
involvement in this.
“The key findings of this report really show that we
can do a few things to improve what is ending up
in our rubbish bins but that our biggest opportunity
is education.”
Townsville Water and Waste Committee Chair Cr
Russ Cook said one of the biggest challenges
facing Council is ensuring residents are putting
their waste in the right bins.
“This report identified that across the city residents
are on average filling roughly a fifth of their bins
with the wrong type of waste which is big
opportunity for us,” Cr Cook said.
“If we can get our residents recycling properly this
has flow-on benefits for the economy as recycling
creates more jobs and fills less space in our
landfills.

Kerbside Audit
“From this report, Council can now look at
developing education programs targeted at
improving recycling across the city.”
Stats and facts:
Residential waste bins:
On average waste bins each weigh
13.7kg/week.
On average 20.8% of the sorted waste
stream falls into the recyclable’s category
(leakage) and could be recovered at the
Materials Recovery Facility if it was in the
correct bin. The proportion of leakage
varied between 13-35%. Vincent had the
highest percentage of leakage in the waste
stream and Burdell the lowest.
Garden organics (27.2%), food organics
(18.4%) and other waste (7.6%) made up
the top three components of a waste bin.
Residential recycle bins:
On average recycling bins each weigh
10.5kg/fortnight.
On average 19% of the sorted recyclables
fall into the waste category
(contamination). The proportion of non-
recyclable items in the recycling stream
ranged from 3.88% to 29.94%. Black River
had the highest proportion of recycling
contamination.
Recyclable glass (31.9%), recyclable
cardboard (21%) and recyclable paper
(15.6%) made up the top three
components of the recycling bin.
Kerbside Hard Waste Update
Townsville has kicked their rubbish to the kerb with
over 23,700 households taking up this year’s
kerbside collection.
The annual kerbside collection is wrapping up this
week in time for the cyclone season and Council
crews have picked up over 2,850 tonnes of waste.
Townsville Water and Waste Committee Chair Cr
Russ Cook said 330 tonnes picked up by Council
staff had been recycled.

“This year, we were able to recycle 330 tonnes of
the waste that was placed on the kerbside across
the city,” Cr Cook said.
“This means that we are able to redirect that
rubbish away from landfill and recycle it instead
which is important for sustainable waste
practices.”
Cr Cook said this year’s kerbside collection went
extremely well and that residents really followed
the instructions well.
“Last year was the first time in more than a decade
that Council had delivered a kerbside collection
program and there was some smoothing out that
we needed to do.
“This year we were able to condense the schedule
for the pick-ups and residents knew what to
expect.
“Over 23,700 properties put out their rubbish for
collection which may have been impacted by the
kerbside collection completed just after the
monsoon earlier in the year.”
Stats and figures:
23,705 properties have presented waste and had it collected,
o That is out of 69,181 properties who have had the service pass through their suburb
o This gives a presentation rate of 34%
o Magnetic Island will be completed in October and see the conclusion of this years’ service
A total of 2,849 tonnes of waste have been collected
o Of which 333 tonnes have been recycled
o This equates to an average pile weigh of 120kg/presenting property
The service is now 97% complete.

Cairns Regional Council
Glass Fines Story
Cairns residents may be closer to driving on roads
made of glass bottles (recovered through kerbside
collections) thanks to recent successful asphalt
trials at Cairns Regional Council (CRC) facilities.
Cairns Regional Council in partnership with local
company Pioneer North Queensland have just
completed trials using 18 tonnes recovered
crushed glass to create more than 120 tonnes of
asphalt for new roads installed across Council
facilities in Portsmith.
Though large quantities of glass bottles and jars
placed in yellow top kerbside recycling bins in
Cairns are recyclable, a portion of this material is
unsuitable for use in glass re-manufacturing due to
the particles being too small or contaminated with
ceramic, stoneware, pyrex and plastic. This
material is known as glass fines. As part of the
mechanical sorting process of waste sent to the
CRC Materials Recovery Facility, glass fines are
diverted through a crushing unit, which is able to
crush the fine particles into varying sizes, to
produce a sand like output.
Government and commercial construction of roads
require large volumes of sand, this material mostly
sourced from quarries in the Barron River Delta,
Cairns Tablelands and from South East
Queensland dune sites. As an alternative to this
material being excavated out of the environment,
Cairns Regional Council has demonstrated that
large volumes of this glass sand could be used as
a substitute. Staff of Pioneer North Queensland
noted that during the trial pour (and after final
quality inspection had been made) that ‘there was
no noticeable difference in terms of its placement
and performance versus normal sand/asphalt'.

Staff involved in the trial also commenting “There
is no doubt that recovering glass for this use helps
protect our local Cairns environment, in having
less dependency on virgin material, but also
shows that material traditionally sent to landfill can
instead be used as a resource”.
From this
To this
A lesser known fact, that though Australia is far
from the most populated nation on earth that we
are still one of the largest contributors to municipal
(household) solid waste globally each year and
with something of a crisis currently facing our
recycling industry we all need to reboot our
thinking towards waste. This is a time when
government and industry can re-think waste,
implement more sustainable recycling methods
right here in Far North Queensland, projects that
repurpose glass sand and other waste products for
roads & non-structural concentre requirements are
clearly a great place to start.
Thankfully government and industry have many
more waste recovery projects in the pipeline, let’s
continue to play our part in the rethinking of waste
as a resource, achieving a more circular local
economy while taking greater responsibility in
reducing the waste we send to landfill each day.
Mandalay Technologies
Managing residential and
commercial collections Data in a
council environment
A perspective from Mandalay Technologies by Darren North Councils traditionally focus on the removal of waste
as an environmental and aesthetic concern, and
while this remains a valid reason for carrying out
these services, the focus is now shifting to also
include the commercial, social and circular economy
outcomes you produce from performing those
activities.
LAWMAC Secretary: Mary Field - PO Box 47, Manunda QLD 4870 mobile: 0409 536 379 email: [email protected] web: www.lawmac.org.au

As a company specialising in data capture we quite
often see a myriad of missed opportunities where
data simply isn't being captured and in reality, it could
and should be.
This gap in information will often lead to commercial
or domestic service users consuming more services
than they are entitled to or have paid for, just to name
one example.
For commercial/business customers or even
residential upgrades, there are a number of solutions
with varying degrees of success currently employed
by councils to try and ensure payment, entitlement
and collections align. I have seen many solutions
such as stickers, different bins, driver run sheets and
even nothing at all to manage ‘paid for’ collections. In
some instances, even domestic waste services have
absolutely no controls over who or how many bins
are put out for collection. Just as long as the waste is
removed, all will be ok.
Within many Councils there are also a vast range of
spreadsheets, driver run sheets, customer records,
rates and fee payments associated with managing
bin upgrades or additional fee services. Most of these
‘tools’ live in isolation from each other and where
there are Waste Managers that try and proactively
ensure entitlements and collections align, there are
usually painful processes that coagulate data into a
single spreadsheet with only a mediocre amount of
accuracy. I’m not trying to tar everyone with the same
brush but, those that can relate a dedicated unique
bin to a single customer, income and collections data
seem to be quite rare.
The actual size and scale of the problems are, for
most Councils, relatively unknown as very little data
exists to identify the issue in the first place. In fact the
lack of data becomes the reason and the roadblock
to improved performance. This lack of data has
allowed these and other similar issues to continue
largely unnoticed as the streets are clear and no one
is complaining. .
With a little investigation it becomes readily apparent
that the lack of information and control creates a
significant risk for exploitation or fraud.
I propose that there are two key aspects required to
achieve significant and ongoing improvement to
savings and fraud reduction.
Firstly, changing the mindset/role of a traditional
Waste/Garbage Manager to that of a Modern
Resource Manager who captures, manages and
utilises data to continuously improve efficiencies
whilst continuing to ensure the core essentials of the
service are achieved. Secondly, ensuring the
Manager and Teams have access to the tools, time,
resources and systems needed to manage and
deliver the services in an efficient manner.
Combining these two key components and utilising
real-time data in user friendly dashboards will save
Councils and ratepayers significant money and
resources and will also ensure that the opportunities
to exploit or defraud the services at the cost to
ratepayers is minimised.
Mandalay will further explore the topic of data capture
through an upcoming Webinar series where we will
dive deeper into the existing structure of
collections and collections data, your relationship with
customers (commercial entities and residents) and
the role that data can play in providing improving
performance for your community and ratepayers.
