Auckland Council orders company to clean up 'eyesore' Takanini scrap heap
Chris McKeen/Stuff Endless Metals has been told to clean up the scrap pile it dumped without proper consents at a site in Takanini, Auckland. Three weeks ago, a huge pile of scrap metal appeared on a lot next to Auckland’s motorway, and now the company which dumped it without proper paperwork has been told to clean it up. Dubbed “an eyesore” by Auckland Mayor Phil Goff, the mound of old cars and scrap has been towering over motorists driving along Great South Road in south Auckland’s Takanini, since late-last month when it first appeared, then started to grow.
