Car got broken into
Hi Neighbours, 2 of my colleagues have had their car broken into this week, residing in East Tamaki Heights(Monday) and Flat Bush(Tuesday). Valuables were stolen. Just a reminder for everyone to keep your cars locked and store your valuables in a safe place. Let's keep an eye out for each other and report any suspicious activity to the police.
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.

The lads in the workshop...
The lads in the workshop work hard to ensure our customers' cars continue to work hard for them … but while they are serious about what they do, they like to have a good laugh now and then.
