Rubbish and recycling delays
Due to a nationwide driver shortage, we’re still seeing some delays with our rubbish and recycling collections.
If rubbish or recycling has not been collected on your street on your normal collection day, please leave it out and it will be picked up the next day
Please note collections now start at 7am, so your rubbish and recycling may be picked up earlier than usual. Make sure you put everything out before 7am on the day of collection, or after 7pm the night before.
Thank you for your patience Pōneke 💛
