Hi, fellow Kapiti community,

Hope you are all safe in your own bubbles

Throughout this lockdown you may have had more time to spend with the family that our normal busy lives wouldn’t allow as much, and also time to do that list of chores and jobs around the house such as gardening, clearing out the garage and sorting out the old rubbish.

Once the lockdown is lifted and we go back to or busy lives which will be extra busy with trying to catch up on the back log throughout the lockdown and you have been busy in the garden or sorting out your old rubbish then call That Trailer Guy on 027-8724537 or e-mail info@thattrailerguy.co.nz to book a time/day slot to come and pick up your greenwaste and rubbish and take to the tip, also picking up the large on-line purchases, whilst you catch up with your work life once we are back to normal.

Bookings are now being taken on a first come first served basis, once we allowed to commence.

Be good and Stay Safe
