Extra Recycling Will Be Collected
Dunedin (Wednesday, 24 August, 2011) –
Due to the cancelled kerbside collections last Tuesday, the DCC’s recycling collection contractor has advised that they
will pick up any excess recycling next Tuesday, 30 August.
The contractor will collect extra glass and those items ordinarily placed in the yellow-lidded wheelie bin, as long as
it is contained safely.
For those residents who missed a ‘blue week’ collection, please put any excess glass recycling into sturdy boxes or
similar containers and leave it out with your blue bin.
For those who missed a ‘yellow week’ collection, please ensure all excess recycling – paper, cardboard, plastic, steel
and aluminium – is inside tied plastic bags or enclosed in containers. This will ensure paper and other lightweight
items don’t blow away.
Please be aware that this extra collection will be on Tuesday, 30 August only and is to compensate for the collection
cancelled due to snow.
