[Video: A woman carries a small white caddy with a black lid into a kitchen and places it on the kitchen bench.]
Voice: Auckland’s food scraps collection service is so simple to use. Let me show you.
[Video: close-up of kitchen caddy on kitchen bench.]
Voice: This kitchen caddy stays in the kitchen.
[Video: Close-up of woman tearing off a pink compostable bin liner from a roll and opening it (using pinch and rub technique) and lining the kitchen caddy with it.]
Voice: To open the bag, pinch the bag between your fingers until the top opens. These can be purchased at supermarkets and libraries. You can also just use paper to line your caddy. Easy.
[Video: image of food scraps information brochure with images of what can and can’t go in food scraps bin and questions and answers about the service.]
Voice: You’ll find out what you can and can’t put in your food scraps bin in this brochure or online.
[Video: close-up of woman and kitchen caddy with pink bin liner full of peel from potatoes and carrots. She throws some peel from chopping board into kitchen caddy.]
Voice: Change your bin liner every two to three days to stop spills and smells.
[Video: Outside in front of a unit, another older woman carrying a kitchen caddy walks down a flight of outdoor steps. Then in the next shot, the woman carrying the kitchen caddy walks into a common service area with large bins set up for different types of waste and recycling. She walks across to the large green food scraps bins that have lime-green lids.]
Voice: Take your food scraps to your property’s common area where residents take their rubbish, recycling and food scraps.
[Video: The woman opens the lime-green lid of one of the large food scraps bin. It is lined with a large pink compostable liner. She tips open her caddy, emptying the contents of food scraps into the food scraps bin. She closes the food scraps bin lid and keeps hold of her caddy.]
Voice: You can empty your food scraps into one of the large food scraps bins your property has been provided with.
[Video: Closer shot of woman emptying food scraps straight from caddy into the food scraps bin. Followed by another shot of the woman tossing a small pink compostable bin liner tied up that is full of food scraps into the large food scraps bin and closes its lid.]
Voice: Put only food scraps in these bins, straight from your kitchen caddy, or in a pink compostable bin liner.
[Video: The woman closes the lid of her now-empty caddy and then carries it as she walks away and out of the common service area.]
Voice: Keep hold of your kitchen caddy.
[Video: Inside the young woman at a kitchen bench lifts a wooden cutting board with scraps of pineapple and mandarin skins on it. She slides them into the kitchen caddy, which is lined with a pink compostable bin liner.]
Voice: Every little bit of food scraps counts. So even if you have a handful, please put it in the food scraps bin. All done!
[Video: End frame with blurred out close-up of woman slicing the outer skin of pineapple on chopping board with kitchen caddy visible on bench.
