The equvalent of 1000 grand pianos diverted from Hutt tip

Reporter Community News

One thousand grand pianos. That's the equivalent of how much waste we have collectively diverted from the Silverstream Landfill in the first month of the new kerbside recycling system, says Cr Brady Dyer.
That's over 454 tonnes! While we have always recycled glass, with the new separated glass crates the quality of clean glass objects (with lids removed) has greatly increased.
What do you think of the new recycling system.
