Recycling Changes
A reminder that from this week, what you can recycle is changing.
These changes have been mandated by Government so that nationwide advertising can be consistent. I guess that people living in Invercargill or New Plymouth were getting confused by what we recycle in Auckland...hmmmm....
The following items will no longer be collected and will now need to go in your general rubbish bin and go to landfill:
❌ Items less than 50mm (e.g. caps, small cosmetic and spice containers)
❌ All lids
❌ Aerosol cans (steel and aluminium)
❌ Liquid paperboard (Tetrapak and juice boxes)
❌ Plastics 3, 4, 6 and 7
❌ Aluminium foil and trays
❌ Items over 4 litres.
Only the following items will now be collected for recycling:
✔️ Glass bottles and jars
✔️ Paper and cardboard
✔️ Plastic bottles, trays, and containers (grades 1, 2 and 5 only)
✔️ Tin, steel and aluminium cans.
Stay tuned for other upcoming rubbish changes:
* Envirowaste are stopping yellow rubbish bag collections from 1 March,
* 30% of all public rubbish bins are being removed from across Auckland,
* Council will soon be consulting on changing rubbish bin collections from weekly to fortnightly.
