Thank you for using Neighbourly
Some of you know I started a petition about shopping trolleys last week. Many people have signed and shared it already (many thanks). If you support the kaupapa, as I’m sure you do, please share it (again) via social media, Neighbourly, email etc. You’ll find it here –the preamble explains it… View moreSome of you know I started a petition about shopping trolleys last week.

Yesterday afternoon I talked with two members of the staff at our small, local Countdown supermarket. Here they do not have a dedicated staff member collecting the trolleys from the carpark. And it is against company policy to collect trolleys (Head Office OSH regulations).
When the supermarket receives calls about misappropriated trolleys, they forward the request to Head Office for them to notify the contractors, and of course it's holidays right now. I understand that. But when it’s NOT holidays and there are delays in collecting the trolleys that gives more opportunities for the idiots to move them again, damage them, or push them into areas where other people have been working hard to beautify.
You and I and other responsible people are merely the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff when we report missing trolleys to the rightful owners, or return them, or use Snap Send Solve or other apps. What I am asking for is PREVENTATIVE action put in place by the stores HQ. There are systems out there which could be used, preventing damage to the environment, waste of resources, time.
I've got better things to do with my time than taking action with misplaced trolleys, haven't you? It would be a big task to change the mindset of the idiots... so hopefully the supermarkets and stores will live up to their sustainability policies and take positive action.
Please, if you haven’t already, would you sign and share the petition? That would be fantastic!

Hi all
Maybe you have one or two of these sitting in your garage and you don’t really need them?
We have a project for the community garden at the start of the new year and need two functional hand trolleys.
That would be fantastic as we haven’t yet got any funding.

If you can’t interact with this post but would like to donate 1-2 trolleys please write a short email to coordinator@ghub.nz
We can come and pick up.
Photos show hand trolley we need and what their end use will be after undergoing a bit of reworking by a talented maker, (a proper garden trolley out of two hand trolleys)
Thx
