Kerbside rubbish collection days for Easter weekend

Darren Petry from Taupō District Council

There will be no rubbish or recycling collections on Good Friday. If your collection day is usually Friday, it will be done on Thursday instead. Please remember to have your rubbish and recycling out on the kerbside by 7.30am as usual.

Normal collections resume on Easter Monday, April 22.

The Broadlands Road landfill and resource recovery centre and transfer stations around the district will be closed on Good Friday but open normal hours all other days.

Have a great Easter weekend everybody!

Say goodbye to tyre waste

Tyrewise

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.
