Each year, we collect over 1,000,000 tonnes of waste and recycle well over 200,000 tonnes.
We are the largest composter in New Zealand, the largest waste-to-energy provider and have the largest commercial electric fleet in New Zealand, all powered by electricity from waste. As a team, we are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to redirect, neutralise and use waste.
In 2023, we made significant strides with the introduction of Porohita, our new sustainability strategy.
This strategy aligns closely with WM’s core business goals, focusing on five strategic pillars that guide our future sustainability efforts.
