Inorganics
Hey neighbours, remember there are many places and people around who would be grateful to receive items that are in good reusable condition rather than just putting them into the inorganic pile. We've got 3 op shops in Pt Chevalier alone - The Homestead (cnr of Alberton and Point Chev Road) and the Hospice shop and St Vincents in the mall. Red Cross, The City Mission, SPCA, Salvation Army and St Johns all have op shops too. You could advertise on Neighbourly or Freecycle to give away. Putting items in good condition (not rubbish) out on the berm with a 'free' sign can work well too. Let's help each other out and give goods as long a life as we can. Think of all the resources that went into creating them and keep them out of landfill for as long as possible.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
