Laundry tub with washing machine faucets needed

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Does anyone have a spare laundry tub, with the cupboard, like a Robinhood they could donate to the Re-New workshop? It’s the last thing (🤞🏼) we need to set up the laundry.
I can swap for an almost brand new, large, wall hung tub, with taps and a built in rack.

I live close to the Tutaekuri, and we had the river mud creeping onto my section during Cyclone Gabrielle. I made an effort to clean my front of section up, only to have CHORUS use it as a parking area after the last heavy weekend of rain. This is what they had to say:

Hi Lara, Thankyou for contacting Chorus.
We apologise if they have created any mess, however as the work being done was on council owned land the technicians do have full access rights to work on the fibre network. That being said, they are responsible for reinstatements for the area but are allowed up to 2 weeks for the reinstatement to be completed. If the reinstatement of the area after this period is unsatisfactory then unfortunately, as it is council owned land, only the council would be able to take any action for this against the technicians.
Kind Regards,
Mark
Customer Service Representative
0800 600 100
www.Chorus.co.nz...

I think, under the circumstances, perhaps CHORUS can park on the road side, or be responsible for what they deface....like the rest of us are.
Lara.
Taradale.
