| 801216 | 2009-08-15 03:39:00 | We have an old washing machine we want to get rid of. Does anyone know who accepts old machines (preferably free)? It seems a bit of a waste to take it to the dump, as there are some usable parts which could be salvaged from it and reused. | somebody (208) | ||

I think the tip/landfill down Owhiro Rd takes them...there's a recycling depot halfway up the long hill to the tipface. |
