The Devonport Community Recycling Centre traces its roots back to 1977 when a group of locals successfully lobbied Devonport Borough Council to begin New Zealand's first municipal recycling scheme, it was an exemplar operation that went on to see waste management change for the better across the rest of the country.
​
A lot has changed since then, But two things remain the same.
​
We are dedicated to diverting waste from landfill
and
We love what happens when locals work together.
