Community Recycling CentreWe are proud to offer a recycling service that goes beyond what you may find through kerbside collection. Our team of dedicated staff hand-sort recyclable materials into their respective categories, ensuring more and better quality recycling. We have thoughtfully partnered with recycling companies in Aotearoa New Zealand who accept these materials, further enhancing the positive impact of your recycling efforts.

Better Quality RecyclingWhen you recycle with Less., you can trust that your materials are being handled with care. By hand-sorting and carefully selecting recycling partners, we prioritize the quality of the recycling process by eliminating contamination. This means the materials you recycle are much more likely to be successfully reprocessed into new products, contributing to a more sustainable and circular economy.
