A recent recycling survey showed that 93% of Wellingtonians recycle, and 87% believe it’s worth taking the time to do it properly. With that in mind, we’ve made some changes to help Wellingtonians recycle right when they visit the Southern Landfill.

As part of our new Waste Bylaw, these items are no longer accepted in the landfill. Instead you can drop them off at the recycling and composting services on site:

♻️ Green waste
♻️ Electronic waste
♻️ Recyclable paper and cardboard
♻️ Glass bottles and jars
♻️ Steel and aluminium cans
♻️ Tyres

"Nice to see a grey warbler/riroriro (Gerygone igata) in the weekend. I'm not hearing them as much now the cicadas have cranked themselves up to full volume. It's probably the end of the breeding season as well. I was interested to read that only the males do the summer warbling, apparently the females only have a short chirp call. Don't ask me why this turkey is hanging upside down - there's always one."
