In search of cool rubbish - Central Auckland

Recommended Posts

I'm doing a project for my class in which we're meant to find was to reuse common waste materials/objects to create an design. Examples are things like using recycled ski poles to make a fence. I'm on a hunt for materials that fit this criteria, as the original materials I gathered were things that I had low quantities of eg. cassette tapes, useless CDs etc. I'm looking ideas/sources for more accessible materials, as the project requires that I'd have to make my design for assessment. I don't need a huge quantity, but just something I could fairly easily/inexpensively get more of, eg. Ski poles would not be appropriate.

I'm all ears if you can think of any other visually interesting trash, or know of great locations to find funky rubbish for a minimal price or free. I'll be going on a hunt for this kind of stuff in the next 2 days. Otherwise if you happen to be located in Central Auckland and have some neat trash that you would like to get rid of, feel free to PM me.

Pikes Point transfer station is where our rubbish goes I think, those guys are pretty helpful if you ring first.

There is also a cardboard box outside one of my neighbour's front door that they don't seem to want to pick up that you can have if it's still there next week hahahaha
