Please note that beginning September 1, 2025, commercial users will incur charges for disposing of any amount of recycling at the Hokitika Transfer Station. In addition, quantity assessments will be carried out at other recycling facilities throughout Westland as we implement this process.
Depositing recyclable items, including cardboard, paper, sorted glass, and plastics at the weighbridge station will incur a fee of $165 per tonne (including GST). This new charge aligns the Westland District Council's rates with those of the Buller and Grey District Councils.
