Inorganic collection tips
- Stack all rubbish in a tidy pile
- Sort tyres into a separate pile
- Remove doors and electrical cables from stoves and refrigerators or place them face down on the grass verge.
Reduce, re-use, recycle!
Please don't put anything in the inorganic collection that could be recycled or put to use by someone else.
- If you have furniture, household items, bikes or equipment in working order, you can donate them to local schools, early childhood centres and charities via
Donate NZ.
- If you have useful re-usable raw materials such as glass jars and bottles, plastics, metals, textiles, appliances or demolition materials, pass them on for re-use at
Auckland Freecycle. You do need to register to use this site before use.
