How should we dispose of Wellington’s waste?

Wellington City Council

The existing consents for Wellington’s Southern Landfill expire in 2026, and we need to decide how we dispose of our residual waste (what’s left after we reduce, reuse and recycle) after this date.

We’ve developed a shortlist of three options and want to know what you think of them.

- New landfill on top of existing landfill (piggyback option) - the Council's preferred option.
- Waste to energy incineration.
- No residual waste facility in Wellington City.

Go to wcc.nz/letstalk for more info and to have your say. Submissions close 5pm Sunday 15 May 2022.
