Soft Plastics Recycling

Carolyn from Avonhead

Have you noticed, the Soft plastics recycling scheme is up and running again after a break of more than 2 years.
Take your empty, clean, and dry soft plastics to the special bin at your local The Warehouse or Supermarket. These bins are specifically for appropriate empty, clean, dry items. Items that you can scrunch up in your hands.
For more information, please see www.recycling.kiwi.nz...
And for your information, these plastics are recycled to produce fence posts, garden plant containers and many other products for sale in NZ. Also remember to check the FAQ’s in the website.

Tell us who are you honouring today. Whether it's a story from the battlefield or a memory of a family member who fought in the war, we'd love you to share your stories below.
