Nelson Environment Centre

It’s been developed to help households and businesses find out what items can be reused or recycled locally, or how they can be disposed of safely. Just scroll down the page, find the waste item you’ve got, click on it and you’ll get the information you need – it’s as simple as that!

Various local Facebook groups exist that offer the option to donate, swap, sell or buy goods for reuse – more details can be found here

For further information on kerbside collections from homes, check out the Nelson City Council and Tasman District Council websites or visit one of their offices in the region.

We try to keep this guide as up to date as possible but things can change quickly in the world of waste, so if you can’t find what you are looking for or the information is out of date, please contact Waste Education Services (WES) at the Nelson Environment Centre to let us know. You can contact us on 03 545 9176 or send us an email.

The listing of outlets through this guide does not imply a recommendation.
