ENVIROWASTE CHARGED COMMERCIAL RATES FOR RESIDENCE FOR PAST 15 YEARS !
Hey there neighbours. It was only when I went to cancel Envirowaste this week who collect my yellow bin (because of the sky rocketing price for weekly collection) that Envirowaste tell me I have been paying commercial rates for a residential bin for over 15 - 20 years. They tell me the they don't owe me any money as all residential properties were charged commercial rates back in the day? Any lawyers out there ? Do I have a case under the Fair Trade Act, the Consumer's Guarantee Act or for the Small Claims Court ? They are only now offering to give me a discount on a residential bin after they have jacked the prices to astronomical levels over the years. I would be interested to know what others thought ?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
