Message from Council re Recycling during COVID-19 Lockdown

Wendy from Waiwhetu

Looks like the message about glass-only recycling is having a hard time getting around. Only 20-30% of households are putting out glass-only crates. So we need your help!

Please share this post with 5-10 people you know in Lower Hutt. Not just on Facebook, txt or call them too. Then ask them to do the same and share the info. It's also a good opportunity to reach out, ask how they're doing.

🗑♻️ Your rubbish will be collected as normal, but please only put glass in your recycling crate for now ♻️🗑

All other recyclables either reuse or put into the rubbish.

Our contractors are using whatever fleet vehicles are available for glass-only pickup, so you will see trucks collecting that you'd normally see for rubbish only. Be assured, if you put out glass-only in your crate it is being sent for recycling.

🐰 Easter: The usual Friday refuse and recycling collections will be collected on Saturday 11 April, instead of Good Friday.
