"Inspiring our communities to
Zero Waste living"

Onehunga CRC proudly stands as the first Māori/Pasifika-led Community Recycling Centre in Tāmaki Makaurau.

 

We're passionate about educating our diverse communities on zero waste, providing sustainable solutions for local businesses and strive to protect our whenua by diverting as much material from landfill as possible.​

Operating as a primary hub for collecting resources, we sell reusable materials in our Reuse Shop and repurpose furniture and construction materials for reuse, diverting over 1000 tonnes per year.

Green Juices

Reduce.

Empowering our people with knowledge about waste reduction is integral to fostering conscious consumer choices. 

 

Understanding what items can and cannot be recycled is fundamental for making informed decisions when purchasing new products.

Reduced consumption = less waste

Vegetables in Paper Bags

ReUse.

Our unique focus lies in repurposing materials, and we've dedicated ourselves to supplying our local community with the finest reusable materials.

Come check out our Reuse Shop & Yard selling everything from furniture to construction materials.

Find us at 37 Victoria St, Onehunga open Wednesday - Saturday 10am - 4pm
