Once in Raglan head west until you cross a one-lane bridge. After this bridge take the third left Te Hutewai Rd and continue up this road, past the Golf Course until on the right you will see a long driveway which takes you to The Raglan Recycing Centre and Transfer Station.
Recycling in Rural Areas
Xtreme Waste currently has two rural recycling containers operating at Te Mata and Te Uku. Drop-off your household recycling here. These containers take glass, cardboard, paper, tin cans, ali cans and plastics 1, 2 and 5 as well as clear film (bread bags and bubble wrap). Waikato District Council funds the servicing of these containers.
