New Public litter bins unveiling

23 September 2016 - Rotorua’s first public recycling bins were installed today at the lakefront.

The new bins will replace the rubbish-only bins in Rotorua’s lake reserves and inner city areas. Each bin has a general rubbish section as well as sections for recycling glass and plastic, paper and cardboard.

The wooden slat bins are a unique design which feature te reo Māori signage to indicate the types of waste - karāhe (glass), hangarua (recycling) and para (rubbish).
