Book your household inorganic collection service
Hi neighbours,
Have you booked your household inorganic collection service?
Inorganic bookings for your neighbourhood close eight days before the relevant collection week.
Pre-booking ensures the collector has permission to collect items from inside your property boundary and also means you can let the council know if there are any access issues on the property.
Collection piles can be up to a maximum of 1 cubic metre in size.
The service is for items that don’t belong in your kerbside collection, so don’t put your cardboard or excess rubbish or recycling in your inorganic pile.
Concrete, porcelain, ceramics, and polystyrene are also banned from the inorganic collection.
You can book your collection by going to:
www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz..., phoning 09 301 0101 or dropping into any service centre.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
