Recycling Paint Cans
Just got a huge shock when I brought in four mostly empty cans (total of 22 liters) of old paint to Resenes. Last year they charged 25 cents a liter to take the paint. This morning the charge went up to $30 ($10 for a large can/bucket). I declined and took the cans back home. While I always appreciated Resene’s offering this service (don’t think Bunnings does) there is no way I can afford to pay these kinds of fees to recycle all the old paint cans I have collected over the years. What was once a service with a charge to cover costs now seems to be profit driven.
One can only imagine where this stuff will now end up.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
