Register for Household Chemical Waste Drop-off
Palmerston North City Council is hosting Household Chemical Waste Drop-off for the third year running on the 9 August. We urge you to register to drop off your chemical waste so we can responsibly recycle and dispose of your chemical waste.
Many households regularly use chemicals around the home that can be hazardous to people, pets and the environment. These often end up being disposed of down the toilet or the sink which is bad for the environment.
Register online at www.myhazwaste.kiwi/local-collection/ or phone 0508 CHEMICAL. Registrations close on 3 August.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.6% ... It is complicated
