Rubbish and recycling is changing next year.
A new weekly kerbside rubbish and fortnightly recycling service, paid for through rates, will be in place from 1 July 2021.
How will it work?
Recycling - For recycling, you will get a 240-litre wheelie bin for mixed recycling, and a 45-litre crate for glass both collected fortnightly.
Rubbish - For rubbish you will get to choose from three options:
• A 120-litre bin collected weekly (default option)
• An 80-litre bin collected weekly
• A 240-litre bin collected weekly
Green waste - You’ll also get to choose whether you want a 240L green waste bin, collected every four weeks.
What’s next?
We’ll be in contact with you later this year about bin options.
If you have a contract for your current rubbish collection, make sure you cancel it before 1 July 2021.
If you are a landlord you may wish to get in touch with your tenants soon about these changes.

Public Transport fares face 70% increase..
Wellington region users says increases to public transport fares of more than 70 percent would be "ludicrous", and would lead to them working from home more often, or taking the car rather than the bus.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
