Half of Lower Hutt told to put their bins out on the wrong day
How is your rubbish? Lower Hutt's new waste and recycling scheme hasn't gone to plan with about 18,000 households being delivered the wrong collection schedule. Some residents’ recycling has gone uncollected. Nearly half of Lower Hutt’s 40,000 households were told to put their bins out on the wrong day, marring the start of the city’s new rubbish and recycling programme.
