Perhaps this explains why.

"The cost of dumping a trailer load of rubbish will rise from $4 to $16. Also from Monday, householders will pay $1.40 per rubbish bag in the weekly collection at the gate. "

399602 2005-10-27 03:19:00 Yep, the same thing happens in Dunedin too.
Any uncollected rubbish just hangs around and the council end up picking it up anyway - just over a larger area.

My quote from the Herald was about Whangarei's new tip and it's prices.

399605 2005-10-27 08:14:00 No water charge (yet)
rates pay for kirb refuse collection
recycle bins are also a free kirb pickup
yes kirb dumping still happens

ah but a car and trailer to the dump, well get the wallet out

The thing I dont get is I pay to dump my GREEN WASTE which the council later sell Back To Me as potting mix after letting it sit in the weather stewing for a couple weeks ( watch out for legionares )

So you feel that the increase cost in Whangarei will effect rubbish in Rotorua.?

Whats the fine if you get caught?

Products these days have too much nice packaging to tempt you to buy it.
