As the weather heats up, it's the perfect time to look around your yard and start tidying up before storm season arrives. Don't forget, Burdekin residents can dispose of green waste for free at all local transfer stations, as long as no general waste is mixed in.
With the warmer weather, make sure you're sun-safe by wearing a long-sleeve shirt, a hat, and sunscreen before heading out into the garden.
If your yard is already in great shape, take a look through the shed or spare room - you might find items you no longer need. These could be exactly what someone else is after, and it's a great chance to make some extra cash by taking part in the upcoming Burdekin Garage Sale Trail in November.
Check Council’s website for details and how to register, Burdekin.qld.gov.au.
