Tradie Breakfasts
Start your day with a free coffee, served with a side of expert knowledge in reducing waste at the Tradie Breakfast series.
If you’re in a trade or simply interested in how you can help reduce waste, then Taupō District Council’s Tradie Breakfasts are for you. The series brings together local experts to share advice on how to make positive changes in waste reduction.
If you’re a builder, plumber, architect, welder, project manager, or just interested in looking after the environment – these events are for you. Created to bring waste minimisation front of mind.
Taupō District Council and 3R Group have worked together to develop and provide a great line up of topics and guest speakers for these three events, designed to upskill and inspire you.
Each breakfast will cover a different area of waste reduction including recovering, reusing and recycling commercial waste. No matter which session you attend, expect to leave feeling inspired and equipped with easy strategies to reduce waste on site.
If that’s not enough to get you up and at ‘em, we’ll have freshly brewed Sacred Grounds coffee and hot breakfast.
