Kerbside collections to resume on Wednesday  

With Auckland’s most severe weather due to subside from tonight, rubbish, recycling and food scrap collections will resume from Wednesday. 

The normal collection cycle will apply, which means that some residents will have to wait until early next week for their usual rubbish collection, and a fortnight for their usual recycling collection. 

If your collection was cancelled and your rubbish is unsafe to store, you can take it to one of the 15 participating Auckland waste transfer stations free of charge when it is safe to do so. Before heading to a transfer station, make sure to check the opening hours in this information sheet [PDF]. 

The collection of flood-damaged items will restart from tomorrow, Wednesday 15 February. If you have already lodged a request for assistance, or collection of your flood-damaged items from the kerbside, we have you on our list and we will get to you as soon as it is safe for us to do so. We appreciate your patience as we continue to work through those requests.
