We understand it’s been frustrating not having full recycling services over the COVID-19 lockdown period, and we appreciate the community’s patience while we work through this.
The change to our new collection system and contractors has been interrupted by COVID-19 but we are pleased to be able to start to bring services back - see link at end of post for more information.

• KERBSIDE COLLECTION of plastic and cans for recycling will resume on July 1. Glass, paper and cardboard collections continues as normal.

• RECYCLING STATIONS for plastic, cans, glass, cardboard, and paper open at Henderson Rd and Blackbridge Transfer Stations today – Bookings essential. Martin Place remains closed while we work through safety issues given this site has potential for large numbers to congregate.

• RURAL RECYCLING – Staged roll out with bins back at Tutira, Poukawa, and Mararekakaho from this Saturday, May 23. Bins planned to be installed at Waimarama and Pukehamoana at the beginning of next week.

The rollout of the new black recycling crates is continuing and by July 1 serviced households should have the three crates as well as a 120 litre wheelie bin for general rubbish.

Small businesses are vital to the recovery of our economy.

During the Covid-19 restrictions, business owners have shown initiative, hard work and resilience to keep afloat.

But many have been hit hard.

Lack of clarity about just how heavy the toll of the restrictions have been on individual businesses and their ability to quickly rebound adds to the uncertainty of the national economic recovery.

Therefore, Prosper is launching a survey targeted at finding out the scale of Covid-19's impact.

You can take that survey right now – it will only take a few minutes.
