Recommended Company - Rubbish Removal

Dawn Neighbourly Lead from Johnsonville

Since a lot of us are using the warmer weather and more daylight hours to get some much needed clean up done, thought I would tell you about our encounter with a local rubbish removal company.


We did a big clean up of our garage and looked at skip prices, for what we needed would be quite pricey and another few hours work for us. Like many, we are time poor and looked around for another alternative. We found one!!


The company is called 'Junk n dump' - they take care of EVERYTHING they take it all away (including building material, whiteware, furniture etc) and sort it to recycle what they can, pass items that are useful onto charity and dump the rest reducing what goes to the tip!! And to top it off they are very reasonably priced!!


They are friendly, extremely efficient and even swept the floor of our garage, they cleared our rubbish within 45 minutes!! They aren't on Neighbourly (yet) but can be found with on facebook www.facebook.com... or call Manny on 022 167 9027, they give free quotes and are very quick with any communication. I absolutely recommend!!


Attached is a before and after picture of our garage, I am in no way associated with the company just joe bloggs public who was very impressed with their service and believe in keeping things local (they are Tawa based) and love they way they do things, knowing items were being recycled and reused where possible.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
