Reduce waste to landfill
Book your annual on-property inorganic collection today and reduce waste to landfill. We will collect your inorganic items from inside your property boundary, not the berm or the roadside. This means less mess on the road, so the community is tidier and safer.
Once you have all your inorganic items together, please check:
• There is no more than one cubic metre of items.
• Ensure items are within your property boundary, at the front and as close to the driveway/entrance.
• Items can be easily lifted by two people (less than 55kg).
• There are no hazardous waste items.
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
