Battery recycling
Did you know you can recycle your household batteries for free?
We have created seven drop-off stations around the city where you can take your batteries to be separated for re-use, recovery and re-processing.
The locations are:
๐ Island Bay Community Centre
๐ Karori Library
๐ Kilbirnie Library
๐ Newlands Community Centre
๐ Tawa Community Centre
๐ Te Awe Library (CBD)
๐ Tip Shop at the Southern Landfill
Used batteries are no longer allowed in your kerbside rubbish as they can leach harmful chemicals into soil and waterways, so itโs important to keep them out of the landfill.
