Our summer services
Mōrena Western Bay,
Just a heads up of what our services look like over the coming summer holiday:
*Library and Service Centres*
All our service centres (Barkes Corner, Katikati, Te Puke, Ōmokoroa and Waihī Beach) will be closed from midday Friday 23 December - Monday 9 January.
*Kerbside Rubbish and Recycling Collections*
Kerbside collections will remain unchanged for most of our District, so carry on putting your bins by out by 7am on your normal day.
If you’ve got a holiday rental, please make sure to let visitors know about pay-as-you-throw (PAYT) tags, where to purchase them and how to attach them correctly. Send them here if you need info: kerbsidecollective.co.nz...
There will be extra collections for holiday hotspots: Waihī Beach, Athenree, Bowentown and Pukehina to help with the holiday overflow. kerbsidecollective.co.nz...
*Recycling Centres*
Our recycling and greenwaste centres may have different opening hours and days to usual over the holiday period, so make sure to check hours below before you go!
There will also be excess glass drop-off at Ōmokoroa Greenwaste Centre to help make the big holiday glass recycling easier! These bins will be available every Wednesday and Saturday, 2pm to 4pm from 21 December to 28 January (excluding Saturday 24 December).
Sustainabox and Recyclasaurus Rex (our mobile recycling trailers) will finish up on Saturday 17 December, 9am to 1pm at Te Ranga School and start up again on Saturday 7 January at Omanawa Hall and BP Pongakawa, 9am to 1pm.
*Building and Resource Consents – clock stops*
Our teams will work as hard as possible to process your consent applications! But just know that the period from Tuesday 20 December through to Tuesday 10 January is excluded from the 20-working-day statutory timeframe for building consents, code of compliance certificates and resource consents - so any applications submitted on or after Tuesday 20 December may not begin to be processed until after 10 January.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
