Waste Education

25 September 2023

Learn how UC is supporting our community to reduce waste in the first place, through education, resources, and practical activities.

APPLY NOW

From 1 February 2024, new national standards to kerbside bin collections are in place, which means a consistent approach to how we sort recycling, organics and rubbish across Aotearoa New Zealand. 

In May 2024, UC is launching a 'Waste-Ed' campaign to educate, inform, and inspire our community to learn about the new national standards, and to learn about how we can reduce waste in the first place.

Upcoming Waste-Ed events
