About
EcoCentral

All EcoDrops and the EcoShop are closed ANZAC Day (25/4/2018).

 

At EcoCentral, we run the three EcoDrops and operate the Material Recovery Facility (EcoSort) on behalf of Christchurch City Council. The EcoShop is also part of our unique business.  We receive and process a high proportion of Canterbury recycling and waste, seeking to divert into usable resources, with a target of minimizing the residual waste to landfill.

Enjoy exploring our site.
