Transfer stations

The Westport and Reefton transfer stations are operated by SmartEnvironmental.

The Westport transfer station is a key facility in the Buller District where recycling from the district is checked, sorted, compacted and stored to be sent to processing plants. All recycling needs to be sent outside the district for reprocessing since the Buller District has no recycling process facilities.

Refuse from zone one is collected at the Westport and Reefton transfer stations to be transported to the Nelson landfill for final disposal.

Please see the price list for disposal costs.
