The Brisbane City Council opposition says almost 1,300 cases of illegally dumped rubbish and household goods show the mess left since the Brisbane City Council cancelled kerbside collections almost a year ago.

The chair of Council’s city standards, Kim Marx, said they have implemented a range of high-tech cameras that are installed in dumping hotspots and are rotated to different locations.

Ms Marx also said kerbside collection would return when it is economically viable, meanwhile $800,000 is spent on removing illegal dumping every financial year.
