New Rubbish and Recycling Collection Calendars Now Available

It’s been a year since South Taranaki switched to the fortnightly rubbish and recycling system, and most people seem to have the hang of it now.

To help you stay on track, new collection calendars are now available for the upcoming year — from 1 October 2025 to 30 September 2026. These calendars show whether it’s a red week or a yellow week, so you’ll know which bins to put out.

Although the current calendar runs until December, we’re changing the schedule to match the green waste subscription year (October to September). That means all new calendars are now released at the same time.

The easiest way to get reminders is by downloading the Antenno App. Just add your address as a place of interest, and you’ll get a notification at 5pm the night before your collection day, telling you which bins to put out.

If you prefer a physical calendar, you can:

• Download and print one from www.southtaranaki.com/calendar (there’s also a property search tool to check your zone), or
• Pick one up from your local LibraryPlus or the Hāwera Administration Building.
