If your house receives kerbside recycling collection as part of your rates, your property has been allocated three crates.
The crates must remain with your property when you move. If you require a crate, phone Council on 06 857 8060, or pop in and see us at our Waipawa office or Waipawa Library.
Recycling includes cardboard, paper, plastic bottles and plastics (1, 2 & 5), cans and glass will be accepted if it is clean.
Check the bottom of your plastics to find the number. Wash, squash and take lids and tops off plastics and glass. View the recycling made easy guide.
Two mobile recycling trailers operate in our rural communities where Drop-Off Centres and kerbside collections are unavailable.
The trailers operate from 8am to 4pm on the following days and locations:
The trailers do not operate on Christmas Day, New Year's Day, Good Friday and Anzac Day. Sometimes the service may be disrupted due to unforeseen circumstances eg severe weather events or unplanned road closures. We will let people know via our Facebook page and this website as soon as we can.
Council has paused the implementation of wheelie bins for kerbside refuse collection while it assesses priorities in light of Cyclone Gabrielle's effects and also awaits for Central Government to provide clarification on future waste-related policies.
