Delays to rubbish bin roll out
The latest information from the council on the rubbish bins.
"Kia ora Lower Hutt, the terrible weather at the weekend meant not all of the new rubbish and recycling bins could be delivered as scheduled.
We're doing a big push and all bins should have been delivered by end of day Wednesday, except for properties that have been contacted and are receiving rubbish bags until their bins arrive in July
Suburbs that will have their bins delivered today and tomorrow are in Wainuiomata and include Homedale, Parkway, Glendale, Arakura and Moores Valley. We are also continuing to make deliveries to apartments and townhouses across the city.
We appreciate your patience and understanding and want to reassure you that you will have your bins in time for the new service starting.
If you are not in Wainuiomata, or in an apartment or townhouse – and haven't heard from us directly – please contact us if you have not received your bins. Phone 04 570-6666/ 0800 HUTT CITY or email us at binchanges@huttcity.govt.nz"
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?
Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.
This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚
