Ten Ton Project
Help Us Stop Waiheke's Construction Waste Going To Landfill
What We Did
Back in 2018 when Lavara and I took on The Rubbish Company we saw a massive problem with landfill volumes coming from construction waste. It was hard to watch over 150 tons a month going to landfill that could be recycled. The transfer station was the only option and they didn't recycle construction waste.
​
We decided to take a leap of faith and setup a small Construction Waste Sorting Facility on island to redirect everything we could away from landfill, starting with what came through our skip bins. It was a great success! As of 2025​ we moved to a larger yard space. While we aren't set up for full C&D recycling here yet, we are recycling over 100 tons a month in metal and concrete. We have big vision for the future, especially with C&D.
​
