Shock, Horror, APPALLING!
We are going to lose the new recycling depot! Where is the common sense? I could not believe my eyes. Food, shoes, an aquarium, polystyrene to name a few things. FIRE HAZARD!!!
Yes, I expected people to have a build up of recycling but it was not intended as a RUBBISH TIP! Being one of the battlers to get this facility I now wonder why I did it.
May common sense prevail! My understanding now is contractors have been called in to clean it up at a great cost to ratepayers.
To end on a better note before I lose the plot: THANK YOU to those who saw the dilemma and continued to the Lower Hutt depots to discard their RECYCLE.
