Join us for Recycling Week 2025!
Recycling Week is an annual initiative to raise awareness and educate New Zealanders on best practices for waste minimisation and recycling. The campaign encourages conscious procurement and disposal of items, with the aim of creating a waste-free future for New Zealand.
Launched in 2013, an ever-increasing number of organisations (schools, corporates, and everything in between) are having fun and learning by taking part in the week.
This year, New Zealand's Recycling Week will take place on October 20 to 26, 2025.
Reclaim turns 50
For the last 50 years Reclaim has led New Zealand's commercial sector towards circularity and waste minimisation through diverting over 4 million tonnes of recyclable materials from landfills.
Keeping resources in circulation for longer reduces the demand for extraction of raw materials, saves on resource processing emissions and is overall kinder to the environment. Reclaim is proud to be serious about recycling and to have supported thousands of organisations in achieving waste minimisation success over the last 50 years.
Our Story
Reclaim's goal is to shift attitudes about waste. It should no longer be treated as rubbish and dismissed as worthless; it should be seen as a valuable resource. We want to ensure these resources are processed properly at dedicated recycling centres, rather than be buried in a landfill.
We specialise in providing recycling solutions specific to your business. All our services are tailored to achieve your business's waste reduction and sustainability goals. Reclaim provides regular collection services on a daily, weekly, fortnightly or an ‘on-demand’ collection basis. We also provide recycling guidance, advice and assurance.
Reclaim is serious about recycling.
Recycling Week 2025
Recycling Week is all about educating New Zealanders on best practice waste minimisation and recycling, encouraging conscious procurement and disposal of items and packaging, to create a waste free future for New Zealand.
Launched in 2013, an ever-increasing number of organisations (schools, corporates and everyone in between) are having fun and learning by taking part in the week.
Each day of Recycling Week features an easy-to-remember theme that will challenge and encourage you to re-think your waste minimisation and recycling behaviours. Each of these themes has plenty of activations, interactions and games to select from.
