Recycling bins overflowing during the festive
season?
Christmas brings
celebrations that can mean additional paper, bottles, cans
and other recyclables that can fill the kerbside bins and
crates to overflowing.
The Palmerston North City Council would like to remind residents that they can drop off any surplus recyclable waste to recycling centres over the holiday season.
Residents should note that that, while it is beautiful, the foil wrapping paper cannot be recycled and should not be placed in recycling bins.
