Living/Rubbish and recycling

Rubbish and recycling

Tauranga is at COVID-19 alert level 2.

We are resuming most council services and reopening public facilities but with additional safety procedures in place. Visit our COVID-19 page to find out more. 

Let's bin bad habits

Tauranga City currently has a predominantly user pays waste system, which means rubbish, recycling and garden waste collections and transfer stations are all operated by private contractors and funded through user charges.

As of 1 July, Tauranga City will have new kerbside rubbish, recycling, food scraps and optional garden waste collections. Our aim is to halve the amount of household waste sent to landfill by 2028.
