Concrete Waste

Sam from Clouston Park - Kingsley Heights

Kia ora Neighbours!

Bit of a random one, but I had a few large chunks of concrete to get rid of (stashed behind the shed of previous tenant or owner) and I'm wanting to do it sustainably if possible. It was presumably a path/walkway as its about 2 inches deep and square metre give or take. When we put in new drainage there will likely be some more tucked away and wanting removed

The worst case scenario is the tip - bad for planet and wallet

Is there somewhere out there I can recycle or repurpose it? I'm thinking Expol polystyrene-type collection or even someone with a jack hammer that wants to shrink it down to smaller chunks and use for infill or building up a stopbank?

Open to ideas and happy to drop off if within reasonable distance from Upper Hutt

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
