Transfer Stations
Kā taupuni whakawhiti para
There are two transfer stations in our district that accept and treat waste before bringing it to Victoria Flats landfill or a recycling facility. Both facilities are operated by Waste Management NZ on behalf of QLDC.
Waste collectors and the public can bring waste items not suitable for kerbside collection to transfer stations.
