Taumarunui weighbridge
All refuse (with the
exception of rubbish bags) being disposed of at the Taumarunui Transfer Station is
charged based on weight (per kilogram). Pricing is driven by a number of factors inc. operational costs and the Government Waste Levy charged on every tonne of refuse sent to landfill. Note: With the expiry of the resource consent on the Taumarunui Landfill (Oct 2020) all Ruapehu landfill refuse is being trucked to the Hampton Downs Landfill south of Auckland.
Per kilogram costs are based on the following prices (Fees and Charges 2020/2021):
- Domestic
waste $ 220 per tonne
- Commercial
waste $ 350 per tonne
- Green
waste
$ 10 per tonne
- Special
waste
$ 240 per tonne
- Polystyrene with >20%
content $1,200 per tonne
