WM New Zealand is proud to be a registered partner with Tyrewise – New Zealand’s first regulated tyre product stewardship scheme. We provide end-to-end tyre collection and recycling services, helping you meet your environmental goals while keeping tyres out of landfill. We collect both pneumatic (air-filled) and solid tyres from:
We collect tyres from standard road vehicles including cars, trucks, and buses.
We accept tyres from motorcycles, scooters, and both light and heavy trailers.
Tyres from off-road vehicles such as quad bikes, construction equipment, and 4WDs are included.
We collect tyres from a wide range of farm and agricultural machinery, including tractors and harvesters.
Tyrewise is leading the way in responsible tyre disposal. They can track tyres through a network of registered participants, prevent illegal dumping, and support comprehensive tyre recycling across Aotearoa.
Achieving sustainability and environmental goals can be challenging. Responsibly recycling end-of-life tyres will help you achieve your goals and help protect New Zealand’s beautiful environment.
WM New Zealand has the credibility and expertise you can trust to collect and recycle your end-of-life tyres responsibly.
Every year, New Zealanders discard over 6.5 million tyres.
Tyres collected through the Tyrewise programme are transformed into high‑value products, including tyre‑derived fuel for cement plants and rubber mats and aggregates used in playgrounds, sports fields, and infrastructure projects. They are also repurposed into innovative research materials, such as reprocessed rubber for resilient roads and earthquake‑resistant foundations.
Our partnership with Tyrewise is backed by WM New Zealand’s recognized systems: ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), AS/NZS 4801 (Health & Safety), and Toitū Carbon Reduce certification — ensuring every tyre is handled responsibly from collection to recycling.
