Once a month, those living in Te Aakau can drop their recycling off at the local community hall and we will take it to the recycling facility for them.

Where: Te Aakau Community Hall carpark, 953 Te Aakau Road, Te Aakau (next to the school).
When: Third Saturday of each month, from 8.30am-12.30pm.
