Why it matters
E-waste is New Zealand's fastest-growing waste stream. Most of it still goes to landfill.
TechCollect NZ is the only nationally coordinated, free, not-for-profit recycling scheme.
It processes e-waste onshore with a 96% recovery rate.
Council partnership and government support can expand local drop-off access and protect
the scheme's long-term funding.
