Food waste collection back in action
Kerbside collection of food waste bins is set to resume, making it easier for Hamiltonians to keep their food waste out of landfill. From Monday 4 April 2022, Hamiltonians can once again start leaving their food waste bins out for collection.
More information on Hamilton’s rubbish and recycling kerbside collection service, including an online recycling sorting tool, is available at fightthelandfill.co.nz
You can also download the free mobile app Antenno for collection day notifications through Google Play or the Apple Store.

What do you think about this car park's condition?
A Tokoroa local says the car park at Tokoroa Hospital is a “third world” shambles and is not a good look for the town’s public medical centre.
Olaf Langhenkel said the state of the car park, which is riddled with potholes and past attempts at repair, had been deteriorating for around five years and nothing had been done about it.

What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital?
How long it’ll take depends on who you ask and you can measure it in years, elections, or Rugby world cups.
But Hamilton City will eventually be home to more people than Wellington City - likely in somewhere between 24 or 34 years according to Statistics NZ and Waikato University.
