Auckland Public Drop-Off Point
Drop off your recycling today!
Reclaim offers a drop-off point for members of the public to unload readily recyclable material in an environmentally sustainable way.This drop-off point follows source separation principles, whereby waste is separated at source by material type before any processing occurs. This method helps to maintain material integrity and keep contamination to a minimum, so that Reclaim can make sure any items dropped off are recycled.The Public Drop-Off Area is located at 218 Station Road, Penrose, down the drive to the left. It is open Monday-Friday 6:30am to 4:00pm and is closed on public holidays and weekends.
Please see the drop-off guidelines for more information.
