Waste management is an essential service and we are putting measures in place to ensure services will be available, although please note these will be limited. ​

  • At this stage, kerbside rubbish collectors will continue to operate as usual during Alert Level 4
  • During Alert Level 4, you will not be able to drop household rubbish bags off at the Waitaki Resource Recovery Park or the Waste Management Refuse Station in Oamaru​
  • Oamaru's Waste Management Refuse Station will only accept waste from essential services and will only be open Monday to Friday
  • If you don’t currently have a kerbside rubbish collection service, please call one of the following businesses directly to organise this - Awamoa bins on 034349445; WasteCo on 0800 341 11 11; or Waste Management on 03 434 0031 (wait and push option 3)
