Recycling Hub

Our recycling station has now closed. Many thanks to everyone who contributed to it over the 3+ years that it operated out of our Prima pop-up on Brougham Street.

We are recommending Riverlution / Richmond Community Garden's recycling station as an alternative. Find out more about their work and the items they accept for recycling via their website: Riverlution Eco Hub Community Recycling Station located at 46a Vogel Street, in Richmond, it is accessible 24h hours on the gardens side. For larger quantities, send an email to Morgane to organise.


For other recycling initiatives in Ōtautahi Christchurch, we recommend checking out Remix Plastic's Plastic Recycling in Christchurch Blog Post.

Mitre 10 stores accept a number of items for recycling. Note that not all stores offer all of the recycling streams so be sure to check their website before you make the journey. In Ōtautahi Christchurch, the Mitre10 MEGA store in Papanui is a safe bet, at the time of writing they accept the following: battery recycling, polystyrene recycling, plastic plant pots recycling and lightbulb recycling.
