summer is the busiest time of year for rubbish and recycling collections, and here are a few reminders. Rubbish in recycling must be on the curbside by 7 a.m. on collection day, even if your collection is normally later in the day. This allows for changes to the trucks collection route, which happens from time to time in summer. Smart environmental starts some collections earlier and put on additional trucks. Traffic and weather conditions may also mean they need to change their schedule. Please also make sure your rubbish and recycling is on the curbside in clear view of the driver. Recyclable items only if your bin is contaminated with non recyclable items. For example, soft plastics, tetra pak containers, polystyrene or general rubbish. Then it will not be emptied if this happens to you and you are unsure why, please cheque the list of recyclable versus non recyclable items on our website. Tasman dot gov dot n zed slash links slash recycling. If you're still unsure, please contact your local council office for advice. Right? Wait in the crate. The blue glass crates are for clean, clear green or brown glass bottles and jars. The crates contents cannot sit above the top lip of the crater and the crate should not weigh more than 12 kg. Glass that sits above the top lip of the crate may seem harmless, but it poses a risk to the driver and also passing members of the public if it were to fall off while the crate is being lifted, broken glass in the great will also result in the crate being rejected. You can buy a second great from council officers or resource recovery centres or drop off extra glass free of charge at our resource recovery centres. And speaking of that, if you think you have missed your collection time or have had your been rejected, you Khun, take recyclable items to your local resource recovery centre. They will also accept Tasman District Council rubbish bags free off charge. There are five centres located throughout the region at Richmond Mata Vaca, merchants Antarctica and Collingwood
