Delays to rubbish bin roll out
The latest information from the council on the rubbish bins.
"Kia ora Lower Hutt, the terrible weather at the weekend meant not all of the new rubbish and recycling bins could be delivered as scheduled.
We're doing a big push and all bins should have been delivered by end of day Wednesday, except for properties that have been contacted and are receiving rubbish bags until their bins arrive in July
Suburbs that will have their bins delivered today and tomorrow are in Wainuiomata and include Homedale, Parkway, Glendale, Arakura and Moores Valley. We are also continuing to make deliveries to apartments and townhouses across the city.
We appreciate your patience and understanding and want to reassure you that you will have your bins in time for the new service starting.
If you are not in Wainuiomata, or in an apartment or townhouse – and haven't heard from us directly – please contact us if you have not received your bins. Phone 04 570-6666/ 0800 HUTT CITY or email us at binchanges@huttcity.govt.nz"

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
