Captain's Log, Stardate 43125.8.
I cannot pick up any of the logs. There is no gear that pops up over the logs. The shredder does not have any abilities besides the Leave Vehicle tab, and I have been standing on, around, and over the logs and cannot pick one up.

What to do
Description
Now that you've got that thing under control, let's gather up the lumber I was supposed to be collecting. Otherwise these orcs are going to build a catapult out of ME! Fresh lumber should be stockpiled all around the area. Use the shredder to collect all you can.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Runaway Shredder!
I've been trying to impress our new Horde allies with our legendary goblin efficiency, but in hindsight automating the shredders was a bad idea. Now they're mindless killing machines, rampaging over the countryside.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Up a Tree
Hold still a second, I'm going to bring your main buzzsaw controls online. Night elven snipers from Talrendis have been hiding in the trees, taking potshots at my workers. I want you to take care of those snipers... by first taking care of those trees.
