Clean Up Week is coming - pitch in!
Pitch in to clean up Whangārei during Clean Up Week and we'll take care of the rubbish you collect for free 🥝
Litter is easy to find and easy to pick up, but it makes a real difference when you do. You don't have to make a big deal about it, just put on some gardening gloves and take a bag or a bucket on a walk in your local park. Why not take a friend or two, and a bucket each?
Register an event at the link below, and please contact us directly to arrange free pick-up and disposal. Clean Up Week runs begins Saturday 17 September.
