Lower Hutt residential cost increases ....
I see there is a substantial increase in charges at the Silverstream Landfill as of 1 July 2021 which is coincidental with the new/revised LHCC rubbish collection.
The previous charge per singular vehicle was $15 and has now become $25 [a 66% rise], the other charges for various combinations/ vehicle types have also increased dramatically. A small trailer has gone from $35 to $50, all of which represent exorbitant increases, imposed by stealth it would seem as I saw no previous advice or notice of this intent. I wonder if others have noticed this and what their thoughts may be. With an expected increase in costs for the new rating period of 13 to 16% it makes one wonder, are we really getting value for our hard-earned $$.
