The project involves pouring concrete next to the existing recycling container on Waipātiki Rd before moving the container onto its new foundation and operating the site year-round.
"The Waipātiki Beach community will have a permanent site fully operational within the next three months," council papers stated.
It is the eighth permanent recycling station or centre operating in the Hastings District alongside sites in Clive, Flaxmere, Waimarama, Tūtira, Poukawa, Pukehamoamoa and Maraekākaho.
People can recycle all the same materials as offered through kerbside recycling including glass bottles and jars, paper and cardboard, and plastics (types one, two and five) and cans.
