Golf Club Recycling | Whole October
In collaboration with Endless Metal Recyclers, Golf Ball Recycling is proud to announce the launch of Golf Club Recycling – a more responsible solution for end-of-life golf clubs.
Throughout the month of October, and as part of Recycling Week, you can recycle old, unwanted and damaged golf clubs, helping keep valuable materials out of landfill and supporting a more circular approach to golf.
Participating golf courses across the Auckland region will host free collection bins for golf clubs to be recycled. All golf clubs are accepted – from drivers to putters, irons and everything in between.
The participating clubs also recycle golf balls through a GBR bin.
Contact the golf clubs directly to recycle and repurpose your old and unwanted golf clubs.
Date: 01/10/2026 - 31/10/2026
Location: Check the link for participating golf clubs
