Waste Management was pleased to join Minister for the Environment, Hon Dr Nick Smith, along with representatives from Golden Bay Cement yesterday, to announce a significant step forward in addressing a critical environmental problem by better managing and re-using end-of-life tyres in New Zealand.
New Zealanders throw away 4.2 million tyres every year, but there is now an end-to-end solution available for the collection, processing and use of our old tyres.
Waste Management NZ today demonstrated their first electric truck for residential wheelie bin waste collections, which will start work on New Zealand streets from October this year.
An electric truck will soon be servicing the Dunedin campus at the University of Otago – saving about 125 litres of diesel a day – as part of its sustainability partnership with WM New Zealand.
As an organisation, our purpose is to safeguard our beautiful environment through the sustainable management of our resources.
After almost 13 years at Waste Management, Managing Director Tom Nickels has announced he will retire at the end of the year.
