Turning Your Food Waste Into A
Resource Rather Than An
Environmental Problem
Organic Waste Management (OWM) is a Wellington owned and operated business, established in 2006. Based in the Eastern Suburbs in Wellington, we service the Wellington Central, Lower Hutt and Porirua areas.
Our core policy is to provide environmentally sustainable waste management, through recycling, that is designed to deliver earth-friendly, comprehensive and cost-effective solutions, customised to each client’s individual needs.
When organic waste breaks down in landfill methane gas is produced. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas and contributes greatly to climate change.
By composting organic waste, we turn it into a valuable resource which is used to enrich soil. Healthy soils hold carbon in a living form and play an important role in our local food production.
Our customers are small or large institutions, both Government and private-sector, with either out-sourced food service vendors, or on-site food services. We also service local restaurants and cafes, as well as commercial food-production companies.
Our customers also have a commitment to protecting the pristine beauty of New Zealand’s eco-system by implementing proven recycling policies that are both commercially viable as well as environmentally sustainable.
