CYCLONE RECOVERY INFORMATION
Need a Sustainable Solution for Cyclone Waste?
The HBRC Silt Recovery Taskforce has been supporting landowners working to clean up their property by collecting treated timber post waste as a result of Cyclone Gabrielle.
Repost is working alongside the taskforce to help repurpose this waste to recycle and donate back into the community, working alongside Federated Farmers to get them to farmers who need them most.
If you want to:
1) Have wooden post waste removed and recycled at the cost of Silt Recovery Taskforce
or
2) Repurpose your wooden post waste for re-use on your farm at your cost
Scroll down for the information we will need to help us quickly become informed of your personal site/case.
Please note: We cannot repurpose all treated timber waste unfortunately, as some is too aged and will not meet our grading standard or lengths are to short for a second life cycle as farm fence posts.

Who pays?
