Get tasks done in Townsville

Townsville has a strong defence and university community, so moves around Kirwan, Douglas and Annandale peak at posting and semester changes. Many homes are elevated or lowset brick houses with large yards that need regular mowing in the wet season.

Rubbish runs and yard clean ups are common before and after the wet, when palm fronds, branches and storm debris pile up. Closer to the city, units in South Townsville and North Ward bring cleaning and flat pack jobs.

Townsville is hot and humid for much of the year, with a wet season from around November to April. Cyclone preparation, such as clearing loose items from yards, is a common late year request. Early starts beat the heat.
