Transfer and recycling stations

We have two transfer stations in Tauranga.

We call them a transfer station instead of ‘the dump’ these days because these are sites where waste is sorted and transferred to specialised facilities in the region for reuse, recycling and repurposing. Waste that we can’t find a second life for will be transported to Waikato’s Hampton Down landfill.  

Our goal in our Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2022-28 is to halve the amount of waste we send to landfill.
