Our Terracycle Recycing Centre is back in business at Level 1

Sophie from Lyall Bay

Our Terracycle Recycing Centre is back in business at Level 1 with a few new safety precautions*.

*We are no longer able to accept dental products and yoghurt suckies that aren’t WASHED and DRIED with hot soapy water.

Due to the nature of a product you put in your mouth to use we can’t risk ourselves or the staff at the recycling centre.
PLEASE WASH AND DRY all these items before dropping them off.

The best way to do this is to pop toothbrushes in the top rack of your dishwasher and cut the toothpaste and yoghurt pouches at the base and let the tap run through them and then add to a sink of hot water and dish soap to remove any germs.

I am sad to say Fonterra are no longer funding recycling of their products. The Collective brand will still be recycling their own containers and suckies.

For more information about any of the recycling schemes please take a look at the posters I have attached or feel free to contact me with any questions at predatorfreelyallbay@gmail.com

Don't forget we now recycle plastic writing instruments (that's pens, markers and mechanical pencils) so maybe set up a collection at your workplace and help save the environment, your school/work and help Predator Free Lyall Bay.

Thank you!

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
