ABOUT TAURIKO
TRANSFER STATION

Welcome the Tauriko Transfer Station.  Building on the groundbreaking success of New Zealand’s first all-electric facility in Drury, we are proud to bring this sustainable technology to Tauriko.  Just like its predecessor, our new Tauriko station is 100% electric, powered by 100% renewable energy.  From intelligent machinery that grabs and sorts to our high-performance 19.5 tonne electric loader, every step of the process runs on zero-emission electricity.

 

Open to both the general public and commercial vehicles, the Tauriko transfer station is fully automated. No need to book ahead if you are a residential customer. All you need is your credit or EFTPOS card and your waste. Simply touch the screen before the weigh bridge to start the process.

 

For commercial customers the automatic number plate recognition provides contactless access.
