Fourteen team members from The Warehouse and Warehouse Stationery Whanganui got their hands dirty on the Whanganui Mountain to Sea Walkway this week, collecting over seven bags of rubbish in just one hour.
The Warehouse and Warehouse Stationery team members were participating in the Great Community Clean Up, an initiative to encourage Kiwis to keep New Zealand clean and green by hosting clean-up events in their neighbourhoods.
The Warehouse Whanganui store manager Hayden Kennard said the main things they collected were plastic and glass bottles.
"We also found a bike frame as well as some plastic packaging."
Hayden Kennard says more than a 1000 team members from The Warehouse stores around the country have been getting involved in clean-up events.
