When reuse isn’t possible, we’re passionate about enabling ethical end-of-life recycling for our community. Wairau Zero Waste Hub is one of 14 Community Recycling Centres in the Auckland Council Resource Recovery Network. We have sorting bins where you can drop off everything from bottle caps and cans to fridges, e-waste and batteries. Please note: We cannot accept green waste or household recycling, such as glass or plastic bottles.
There’s a cost to responsibly managing items that can’t be reused or up-cycled, which is why some charges apply. We aim to keep prices fair while covering the costs of running a community-focused, zero-waste operation — including wages, repairs, compliance, and services. We’re always working to keep our charges affordable and transparent. See drop-off charges for details.

Book a pick-up
We can pick up and drop off goods to our local customers and further afield, by arrangement.
If you’ve got a large volume of goods to donate or an estate to clear, we can help you out with a sorting, pick up and drop off service within the Auckland region - by appointment.
We can also collect large volumes of recycling from business or residential customers. There is a charge to use this service but we try to keep costs affordable and calculate these based on volume and travel distance. Contact us for a no-obligation quote.
