New A-Z Disposal Guide launches for Recycling Week

The Team from Whangarei District Council

We're celebrating Recycling Week by launching our new online A-Z Disposal and Recycling Guide. ♻🗑🥳 Bookmark this:
www.wdc.govt.nz...

The new page includes 70 categories of household items and how to recycle or dispose of them - everything from hard-hats to childrens' car seats, from bras to mobile phones, business clothing, bicycles, bubble wrap and tin cans. You might be surprised what can be re-used or recycled!

Photo: We've also had ambassadors outside supermarkets this week - say hello if you see them and ask them about recycling.
