I have not long been given this wonderful role in sorting out the warehouse for my place of work, 1Geotechnical.
They have for many, many years been working in the deconstruction field as well as Civil construction, drilling, driveways and much more . We have some of the items available so far on trademe. Please save the following seller graceleigh to get updates on 'new' salvaged items from us. Items range from windows, to doors, whiteboards, pinboards, toilets, showers, timber and much more.
One of our biggest interest items are our Pink Batts. If you have a small job on the go, or just want to insulate that man cave of a garage, they are perfect ! However they do sell quickly ! Especially with the new laws coming into place for insulation in rentals.
We even have some fencing and walkway avaialble ready for those "christmas reno projects"

The clock is ticking (and no, we're not referring to the Christmas countdown!) - single-use plastic bags will be out of circulation from July 1, 2019.
All retailers, ie not just supermarkets, will no longer be able to sell or give away single-use plastic shopping bags after this date. To read more, click here.
Do you support the single-use plastic bag ban? How will the ban affect your life?
Have you already adapted to a plastic bag-free life or will this mean big changes in your household? What are your tips and tricks for ensuring the ban doesn't cause havoc when you hit the shops?

The heated dispute was sparked by the decision on Wednesday of an Environment Canterbury (ECan)-appointed commissioner to approve Cloud Ocean Water's plans to extract water from a 186-metre deep bore at its Belfast bottling operation.
That decision, which locked members of the public and their opinions out of the consent process, enraged Christchurch mayor Lianne Dalziel and city councillor Vicki Buck.
But ECan's chairman says the criticism is "ill-informed" and "off-the-wall".

She was on the leash and I was running with her past the top of Broadhaven Reserve on the forest trail (near the parking lot at the top of Bower Ave - entrance to Bottle Lake Forest). The three dogs ran across from the kids play area and immediately attacked my dog. Two of the dogs looked like Staffordshire Bull Terriers (one was black and tan and the other I think was lighter colour) the other dog was white and tan and looked like a small terrier type dog. I tried to get the dogs off my dog but they kept attacking. It is all a bit of a blur but I think that there we four people with the dogs (I think that they were in their 40's). One guy had hold of one of his dogs but it wouldn't let go of my dog, he ended up hitting it and it eventually let go. I think that two of the people were Maori. I've just got back from the vet and Kailey has three big wounds, one on her back, one on her back leg and one under her front leg, she has had loads of stitches. I'm going to file a report with dog control and would like to be able to identify the owners - if anyone could help please contact me. I've also got a small puncture wound on my arm - not sure how I got that, bite or scratch? Jayne

A great place to drop into and unwind with the serenity of 15 cats and kittens, after doing your last minute Xmas Shopping in town. Not open on Monday and you might want to go to their facebook page and pre book as I am sure they will be super popular next week.
They also have a lot of Cat Rescue made crafts for cats and humans which make one off/unique last minute presents.
Thanks for reading. All profits from above go to vet bills in this buzy kitten and desexing season.
