Reuse Shop @ Otaihanga Zero Waste

We’re building a new retail outlet for second-hand goods to replace the existing Tip Shop at the Otaihanga Transfer Station.

There is no funding from rates involved with this initiative. The cost of the new shed is covered by waste levy fees paid by waste disposal operators and others who drop waste to the transfer station.

The new Resuse Shop @ Otaihanga Zero Waste aims to recover and make available for reuse some products that would otherwise go to landfill. 

The new outlet will be a fully accessible resource recovery centre. It’ll focus on stocking and selling building materials, electronics and household appliances (there will be a charge to drop off some items). It’ll also be a drop-off point for the Sustainability Trust’s curtain bank. 

The Resuse shop will be co-located with and run by Otaihanga Zero Waste at 200 Otaihanga Road, Paraparaumu (next door to Otaihanga Transfer Station). 

We partner with Otaihanga Zero Waste to revalue, reuse and repurpose construction and demolition waste.
