[email protected] The Te Awamutu community came to the party to help make the event a success. Volunteers from the Te Awamutu Fire Brigade, Te Awamutu Community Board and Waipa District Council helped with heavy lifting. Serenda Espresso was onsite to fuel the [email protected] workers. The local coffee cart gave out free coffees — in ceramic mugs rather than takeaway cups — to every person who dropped off e-waste. Cambridge Community Board member John Bishop dropped off a computer and two printers.“We’re all hoarders to some extent,” [email protected] he says. “I’ve seen people come and drop off two or three generations of e-waste. It shows we need more events like this — I’d love to see it happen in Cambridge.” Waipa District Councillor Marcus Gower said people were happy to pay the fee of $5 to $10 per item of e-waste. The fee was required because the e-waste TC080318BR05 needs more processing than standard WAIPA District councillor Vern Wilson, right, and Cambridge Community recycling.
