Skip bin supply
Dear Neighbours, Are there any of you seeking to hire a skip bin in the near future? Are you by any chance wanting to waste four hours of your time in a futile endeavour to organise a skip bin delivered to your door? Are you a masochist who wants to indulge in four hours of self torture? Look no further then, go straight to Envirowaste website and see what a world class un-user friendly web site looks like. Whatever you do, don't call in to their office in Aotaki St in Otaki, because (nice as the staff were) they can only direct you to the website. Now this isn't only my experience, after trying without success to organise a bin, I explained my difficulty to a client, he is undoubtedly not unintelligent. He gave up in frustration also. This isn't a case of buyer beware, because they won't let you buy. Try Kapiti skips.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
