Recycling Centre

Welcome to Xtreme Zero Waste’s Recycling Centre. We have been contracted since 2000 by Waikato District Council to operate the Raglan Resource Recovery Centre. Our main objective here is to increase the ability of our community to REUSE – Circular economy in action!

DROP OFF WITH US
drop-offs Xtreme Zero Recycling centre

Make the most of your local Resource Recovery Centre and divert as much as you can from landfill.

  • The price of landfill is currently $116.00 per metre cubed. Let’s do what we can and sort our loads to reuse, recycle and compost materials before landfilling!
  • We take green waste including a variety of noxious weeds $22.50 per metre cubed. Load first on the bottom if you have a mixed load.
  • We accept clean clothes and linens, shoes, toys, sports and outdoor gear, books and homewares that are all clean and not broken. Bag together for Kāhu’s Nest. 
  • We can also divert functional or rusted metal items, electrical items, whiteware and timber for reuse or scrap. Some items will have a drop off charge, some items are accepted for free – please see prices below or ask our friendly yard staff and shop drop off team.
  • Household Recycling can be brought to the Recycle Wall free of charge. All items must be washed to be recycled, what can be recycled found here.
