REUSE IS THE NEW RECYCLE

Join us on our sustainability journey. Choose to reuse your beverage bottles.

It's time to phase out single-use beverage containers and make way for reusable ones, reducing emissions associated with recycling. Green Bottle, in partnership with Auckland Council and Waiōrea Community Recycling Centre, is giving consumers the chance to send a clear message to New Zealand beverage producers about the types of containers they want to see reused in the future.

WHERE DOES RECYCLING GO?

Learn about what happens to your recycling collected through the kerbside collection through a step by step process. Know your efforts aren't going to waste and we are finding the best sustainable solution for the environment.

RECYCLING SOFT PLASTICS AND PLASTIC BAGS

These can’t go in your recycling bin, but you’re right in thinking they can be recycled!
Soft plastics – including plastic bags, courier bags and chip packets – can be dropped off at your local supermarket or retailers who are part of the Soft Plastics Recycling Scheme.

RECYCLING CONTAMINATION

Most Aucklanders are confused about what items you can recycle and what you can’t. We want to simplify this by helping residents to identify the items that can and can’t be recycled.

Be responsible with your recycling today, for a better tomorrow.
