Guard patrolling Otago University skips blocks elderly man from dumping rubbish
The University of Otago has hired security guards temporarily to stop non-students from dumping unwanted waste in the skips meant for students to use.
University of Otago property services director Dean Macaulay said the skips would be in the area over the next three Fridays.
The guards would make sure only students dumped their waste in the skips.
Poll: Are Kiwis bad drivers?
