Suburbs in the Redlands

Capalaba and the north

Capalaba – The Redlands' main shopping and trade centre on the Brisbane side, with light industry and service businesses.

Alexandra Hills – An established family suburb between Capalaba and Cleveland, and the only Redlands suburb without a coastline.

Birkdale, Wellington Point and Thorneside – Established family suburbs between Capalaba and the bay, with railway stations, a canal estate at Birkdale and the King Island sandbar at Wellington Point.

Cleveland and the south

Cleveland and Ormiston – The council centre and the ferry terminal for Straddie, with workshops and light industry around the town.

Thornlands, Mount Cotton and Sheldon – Fast-growing estates south of Cleveland, giving way to acreage and farmland further south and inland.

Victoria Point and Redland Bay – Growing southern suburbs and acreage, and the departure point for the Coochiemudlo and Southern Moreton Bay Islands ferries.

The islands

North Stradbroke Island – Minjerribah, with Dunwich, Amity and Point Lookout. Beach driving needs a permit, and island vehicles take a hammering from sand and salt.

Southern Moreton Bay Islands – Russell, Macleay, Lamb and Karragarra islands, where many vehicles rarely come back to the mainland for servicing.

Auto electrical work that’s common here

Beach 4WDs and dual batteries

Straddie trips mean fridges, lights, UHF radios and recovery gear. A dual battery system with a DC-DC charger, and wiring that keeps sand and water out, saves a lot of trouble on the beach.

Boats, trailers and caravans

Boat ramps all along the bay keep trailer lights busy, and saltwater launches are hard on them. Submersible LED lights, sealed plugs and properly earthed wiring last much longer.

Salt-air corrosion

Living by the bay, and especially on the islands, means corroded earths, terminals, connectors and air con condensers. Small electrical faults often trace back to a green, crusty connection.

Air conditioning

Humid summers make air con a must. Corroded condensers and fan or relay faults are common jobs across the Redlands.
