For years householders have been asking for a better, more environmentally friendly solution to get rid of household waste.

Environmental Green Bins answer your pleas with kerbside recycling choices you've never had before. Now you have an opportunity to make a real difference to the environment.

Environmental Green Bins has been involved in the refuse collection industry for more than 15 years and is recognised within the Tauranga and Western Bay Districts to be the market leader as a service provider of kerbside refuse collection.

EGB continues to work within council guidelines in regards to weekly residential recycling and waste collection and we strongly believe that everyone, from all sectors of the community, must play an integral role towards achieving zero waste.

The Zero Waste by 2015 initiative established by both TDC and WBOP is one that EGB fully supports. EGB strives to diversify the way waste is collected and invest heavily in resources searching for technical innovation and collection efficiency. EGB is committed to staying at the leading edge of this industry, ensuring that the New Zealand waste strategy is implemented working towards zero waste and a sustainable New Zealand.

We intend to do our utmost to assist the community in achieving this beneficial aim by offering a choice of waste disposal options so that everyone can play a part at diverting waste from landfill:

• Biodegradable bags;
• Small, medium or large wheelie bins;
• Recycle bins;
• Compost bins.

EGB is also quite unique in that there is no vested interest in landfill operations. Environmental Green Bins has a clear vision of its future and the legislative requirements of the proposed New Zealand waste management strategy working towards zero waste and a sustainable New Zealand. We closely follow the joint Waste Management Plan for the Tauranga and Western Bay of Plenty Districts to this end. Environmental Green Bins is the only fully licensed operator for these areas to date. Thanks for your participation in helping to make our community a better, greener place.
