POSTPONEMENT of Cultural Storyboards opening and blessing

Waitomo District Council, with the support of Ngāti Rōrā, have made a call to POSTPONE the official opening and blessing of the Mangaokewa Walkway Cultural Storyboards. This is due to areas of the walkway suffering from washouts and flooding from recent weather events. The installation of the storyboards and blessing will be held later in the year, which will allow for the walkway to be repaired and stabilised. We thank you for your understanding.

Kerbside Recycling and Refuse Collection Service

15 Feb 2013, 10:10 AM

By taking the time to prepare your recyclables for collection, you will be able to fit more items into your green bin, without having to overfill it.

Recyclables such as plastic types 1 & 2, glass bottles and jars, aluminium and tin cans should be stacked, washed and squashed (remove lids).

Secure and stack cardboard and paper and place these items next to your green bin.

  • Only residential volumes of recyclables will be accepted (same volume as green bin). Larger volumes of recyclables can be recycled at the Landfill.
  • Only WDC blue refuse bags will be accepted.

The kerbside collection services will no longer accept:

  • Dark grey refuse bags
  • Un-recyclable items in Green Bins.
  • Overfilled Green Bins
  • Recyclables in other bins.

Thank you for your support in reducing recyclable waste going to Landfill and for supporting our local environment.
