Regular Home Collections
General Waste Wheelie Bins
Our wheelie bins in Kerikeri are available in three different sizes: 80L, 120L, and 240L. Our general waste collection service is offered weekly and is the perfect waste management solution for your home, and a great alternative to rubbish bags. Wheelie bin collections are a convenient and hygienic way of disposing of household waste. They are easy to use and maintain, and provide a safe and efficient way of managing waste.
Green Prepaid Rubbish Bags
We are proud to be the largest provider of prepaid refuse bags in the Northland region. You can purchase our green prepaid rubbish bags at your local supermarket or dairy, and with every bag purchased, a portion of the price goes towards funding Hospice and community services in the area. Prepaid refuse bags are collected every week, so you don’t have to worry about missing a bag collection date.
Green Waste Wheelie Bins
Our 240L green waste wheelie bins are offered in parts of Kerikeri and are perfect for those who garden regularly and need a service to stay on top of their gardening waste. All green waste collected in wheelie bins is recycled locally into compost, making this service circular.
Recycling Crates
Our kerbside recycling service extends throughout the Mid North, with recycling crates available in most service areas. Items that can be put in a recycling crate include paper, cardboard, plastic grades 1 (clear only), 2, and 5, glass bottles, aluminium cans, and steel food cans.
Business Waste Solutions
Our commercial rubbish and recycling services in Kerikeri, Paihia, Russell, and Kawakawa are tailored to your business’s needs. For local Kerikeri businesses, we have wheelie bins, recycling bins, skip bins, front-load bins, and Jumbo Bags available to order. With a locally based customer care team available to help any time, we can provide customers with quick, region-specific knowledge and updates.
