An estimated 320,000km of wrap is used every year in New Zealand - enough to circle the earth eight times. Most of this is disposed of by burning or dumping, causing significant environmental damage.
Wrap left lying around on-farm is a potential hazard and contaminates your water ways, stock and farm. You can help protect your work and home environment by using the Agrecovery Wrap Recycling programme.

One packet of Wrap recycling bags costs $60 (+ GST) and contains five large bags, enough to recycle between 60-90 (or even more!) standard round bale wraps in total - that more you fit in the less it costs.
- 12 bale wraps per bag = $1 per wrap
- 18 bale wraps per bag = 66c per wrap
You pay the same price whether you buy via your rural retailer or direct from Agrecovery. There are no hidden costs. All costs, including collection/drop-off, are contained within the bag price.
It’s simple:
- As soon as you peel the wrap off the bale shake as much organic matter and water from the plastic as possible.
- Tightly roll the wrap up, being careful not to roll any contamination with it such as stones, net, twine, lumps of silage etc. Dispose net wrap and twine (we can’t recycle this sorry).
- Stuff the shaken and rolled wrap into the Wrap recycling bag.
When the Wrap recycling bag is full tie it off, store in shed and log collection with Agrecovery:
