Kerbside glass collections to start in October
Tauranga neighbours will be able to recycle glass bottles and jars from the kerbside again due to Tauranga City Council's new rates-funded glass collection service to commence in October. In preparation for the new fortnightly service, collection crates and information brochures are being delivered to every household in Tauranga from next week.
The brochure provides information on how to use the service, and has a collection week calendar so residents will know which fortnight to put their crates out. Collections will take place on the same day of the week as current rubbish collections, unless otherwise advised by Council.
For more information about the new glass collection service, visit www.tauranga.govt.nz/glass or phone 07 577 7000.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
