Clutha e-waste freebie finishes 4.30pm Thursday
It was supposed to have lasted a couple of weeks, but the Clutha District Council's e-waste freebie, where households could drop-off a TV and computer at the Mt Cooee landfill free of charge will have ended by 4.30pm Thursday.
Uptake was so high that the initiative barely lasted four days. The council's waste minimisation team set aside $2,000 to fund the project, which disappeared pretty fast in the rush. This was officer Laura Gourley:
" We've had such a great response from people wanting to recycle their TVs and computers that the fund set aside to cover the cost of this scheme is finished! A huge thanks to everyone who took part. Council will be reviewing final numbers of items and what future initiatives we might run. Remember you can still recycle your e-waste at Mt Cooee, but normal fees will apply - they can be found here: www.cluthadc.govt.nz......
