New fortnightly
kerbside recycling and rubbish collection starts April
A new fortnightly recycling and
rubbish collection for the Clutha District starts in April, with new recycling
wheelie bins being delivered from next week.
Manager District Assets Jules
Witt said that from April 2012, Clutha District Council wheelie bin customers
will put out their existing green wheelie bin for household waste one week, and
their new yellow-lidded wheelie bin for recyclables the next.
Mr Witt said the new
yellow-lidded recycling wheelie bins will be delivered progressively throughout
February to all existing Clutha District Council wheelie bin customers. “But
wait until your normal collection day in the week starting 9 April before
putting it out for collection.”
A brochure explaining exactly
what can and can’t be recycled, as well as a calendar outlining which bin will
be collected each week, will be included with the new bins when they are dropped
off to customers.
It is expected that all the new
yellow-lidded recycling wheelie bins will be delivered by 5 March. Any existing
wheelie bin customers who haven’t received a new bin by then should contact
Council.
Other key points about the new
kerbside recycling and rubbish collection service:
The new kerbside
collection service is being operated by Delta, which will provide Council’s
solid waste management services from 2 April.

fortnightly kerbside recycling and rubbish collection service is available
