E-Waste Drop-Off Sites: Supporting Local Communities Across New Zealand

E-Cycle partners with 25 council and community groups across New Zealand to offer convenient e-waste drop-off sites for households and small businesses.

By choosing these locations, you’re supporting environmental priorities, creating local jobs, and boosting your community’s economy. In the absence of regulated product stewardship in New Zealand, we have to work with a user-pays system. Therefore there are some charges to cover the costs of receiving, recording, storing, transporting, and recycling e-waste.

Our partner sites provide an accessible solution for responsible disposal. Some locations even offer collection services for added convenience.
To find the nearest drop-off site in your area, please use our  site finder map or see the table below. 

Together, we’re working towards a more sustainable future for New Zealand.

* We suggest you contact your nearest site to check prices and opening hours, before dropping off as these do vary across the country. If you are a business, manufacturer, retailer, council, school or other entity with larger volumes of e-waste, please contact us directly so we can provide a quote based on the items and quantities you have.

E-Cycle offers a collection service for larger volumes of e-waste for recycling. We will contact you to provide a quote in advance for freight, recycling fees and confirm collection arrangements. If you require e-waste to be collected, please complete the collection form.

*Freight will also be quoted as an additional charge
