Book your inorganic collection

How inorganic collections work

Our inorganic collections are one of the waste and recycling services funded by the Waste Management Targeted Rate.

Each property in Auckland that pays the rate is able to book (without any additional charge) one inorganic collection per year.

Collections are scheduled for certain areas at different times of the year. Once the schedule is released, you can find the collection period for your area by looking up your property in the online booking tool.

After you've found the collection dates, you can make a booking any time up to eight days before the start of the collection period.

For details on the accepted items, visit what you can and cannot put out for inorganic collection.

How to find out when your collection week is

You can use our booking tool to find your collection week, without actually making a booking.

We will also deliver flyers to mailboxes in your area several weeks before your area's assigned collection week.
