Starting this week the Rodney District Council is instituting a weekly kerbside recycling service for businesses in the Silverdale retail and industrial areas.
The service is free for up to three crates per business. Anything above becomes a paid service, but extra crates can be arranged. Collection day is Thursday.
Crates in Silverdale Street and environs will be emptied between 9.00am and 10.00am with all other areas of Silverdale covered between 9.00am and 7.00pm.
All businesses should receive one crate and an information pack by Thursday 12 November. If you don't have an initial crate or want up to an extra two crates, call the council on 09 427 3274.
