Junk Run: saving stuff from the landfill

From This Way Up, 12:40 pm on 6 May 2017

Junk Run is an Auckland business which collects and recycles all sorts of unwanted items – aquariums, office desks, old telephones, old kitchen units...

Three-quarters of what they collect is redistributed in the community (via charities and op shops) or sold on Trade Me to repairers, collectors, compulsive hoarders, gear freaks and recyclers.

Fionna Gotts shows us around the Junk Run warehouse on Eden Terrace.
