A service that allows Aucklanders to easily recycle rubbish that can’t be put into curbside bins.

In New Zealand, there is a massive problem with the amount of recycling that we do. Most of our rubbish is being put into landfill when it could be reused in a meaningful way.

This capstone project aims to try help this problem be solved. I have designed a service to educate Aucklanders that their household trash can be recycled while giving them a way to recycle it easily.  This will hopefully encourage more recycling, and increase the amount of recycling that we do in Auckland.
