Disposing of your rubbish

| We all have a responsibility to dispose of our rubbish thoughtfully, with our environment in mind. There are a range of options for disposing of your rubbish in Upper Hutt, including private wheelie bin collection services and Council rubbish bag collections via contractor. |

| Recycling |
Recycling is easy and it is one of the best things we can all do for our families and the environment. Did you know that for a typical household in NZ, up to 75% of rubbish can be recycled? That means you can lower your waste disposal costs, reduce the amount of rubbish going to our landfills, and contribute to a healthier planet.
