Auckland Council has announced it is introducing a region-wide rates-funded waste collection service for general waste, recycling and food waste. It means there is going to be very limited, if any, need for Aucklanders to have an additional general waste bin from WM New Zealand.
For this reason, we will be withdrawing from the general waste wheelie bin market over the next several months and will not be accepting any new sign-ups, with the exception of parts of Franklin.
If you are a general waste wheelie bin customer, we will be in touch with information about your final collection. For information on alternative options across the region, visit makethemostofwaste.co.nz/rubbish/rubbish-kerbside-collection/
Please note, garden waste services are not affected by this change
WM New Zealand has been providing inorganic collections for Auckland ratepayers since 2015. Our inorganic collection service is designed to reduce the amount of material sent to landfills. We collect items inside your property boundary, which are then sorted at one of the Zero Waste Hubs.
Any items that can be saved will be repaired, repurposed, or reused. With your help, we can work together to make Auckland zero waste to landfill by 2040. To learn more or book a collection, visit the Auckland City Council page below.
