Re:Inorganic Collection

Auckland City Council has informed us that due to Covid-19, our inorganic collection scheduled, booked and paid (via rates) due to happen in September 2020 has now been postponed to February 2021.

We contacted ACC and posed the question: ‘does this mean we will get 2 inorganic collections in 2021?”. Response: “don’t know, wait and see”. Before becoming a Super City, we use to have inorganic every six months and our rates were much lower. Since the amalgamation our rates keep increasing and we only have one inorganic per annum and we even missed out totally some years. ACC really know how to stuff you around, no transparency or honesty. You just have to suck it up and continue paying. Has anybody else been informed about this postponement?

Hi there. Our wee cat has gone missing from our home in Birman Close. Totally out of character for her. She was taken to the Gt Sth RdVets a few days ago by a neighbour in Birman Close.

Totally out of character for her. She was taken to the Gt Sth RdVets a few days ago by a neighbour in Birman Close. Apparently she’s been living under their deck which is strange as she has been with us, sleeping on the bed at night etc and has been having all her meals as normal. They also mentioned they were starting to feed her which concerns me greatly. If anyone sees her please call. 0212173741. We really miss her and want her back with her family Thanks

We’ve found out where she is, so all good.
