Recycling in Auckland

KRISHA: RECYCLING in Auckland 

First, we put all our recycling in the recycling bin. The recycling truck comes and takes our recycling to the  VISY recycling depot in Onehunga for sorting. Did you know that the VISY recycling facility has some of the most advanced sorting technology in New Zealand?

Next, the recyclables are tipped out of the collection trucks onto VISY  Materials Recovery Facility (MRF’s for short) ramp.VISY receives more than 200 delivered each day. Then a truck scoops the recyclables up and tips them onto a conveyor which takes them inside the sorting building.

The recyclables are advanced on the conveyors then evened out by a levelling drum as they move along. The very first sorting stage is called pre-sort. This is where a team of sorters work quickly to remove things that aren’t recyclable.

I Zayn have read your writing and think you have described the process well.  Next time add more of the process.
