Circular Wine Group Praises Marlborough Recycling Changes
Marlborough's Waste Management and Minimisation Bylaw 2025 encourages vineyards to recycle dripline, posts, and wires, reducing landfill costs.
New waste management rules in Marlborough will boost recycling efforts by the wine industry, says Circular Wine Group member Jim White.
We are wholly supportive of the changes, which make recycling options far more sensible from a financial point of view.
The Marlborough District Council introduced its Waste Management and Minimisation Bylaw 2025 on 1 September, limiting the ability for companies to take specified recyclable products to landfill, says Solid Waste Manager Mark Lucas.

Anyone bringing these products to dump must fill out a Waste Acceptance Evaluation to show they have diverted as much as possible.
