Refuse and recycling one day later over
festive season
Refuse and recycling collections over the
festive season will occur one day later than usual.
As is
normally the case residents will need to put their refuse
and recycling out one day later than usual for the weeks
starting Monday 26 December and Monday 2 January. By Monday
9 January, services will return to normal.
Those in Port
Waikato however, will have no change on Sunday 1 January or
Sunday 8 January.
A reminder of these changes will be
posted on Council’s website and Facebook page closer to
the time and area offices and libraries will also have
details of the change. You will also find the details of
when Council offices, libraries and the refuse and recycling
transfer stations in the district (Huntly, Te Kauwhata and
the Raglan Resource Recovery Centre) will be
closed.
Waikato District Council wishes everyone a safe
and happy holiday
season.

As Anna Burns-Francis pointed out to him on Breakfast TV, the original ”rock solid” $2.1 billion cost he was touting to voters last year has now blown out to $2.9 billion. (That’s a 38% size error in the calculations.) (B) unable to provide assurance that this handout won’t simply be pocketed by landlords (C) unable to explain why Treasury (in research as recent as August 2023) wasn’t citing the loss of interest deductibility as a prime factor driving up rents. More than anything, the Great Landlords Handout undermines the government’s alarmist talk about the state of the country’s books... More
