Commercial, construction, and business waste made simple—reliable solutions built on 40+ years of industry experience.
GoWaste is a proudly New Zealand–owned waste and recycling business, built on over 40 years of hands-on industry experience. We know what works, what doesn’t, and how customers expect to be treated—through reliable service, straight-up communication, and real value.
Led by Dawn and Carl, industry veterans who began their journey in 1990 building Dunedin Waste, GoWaste brings decades of leadership across companies including Waste Management, Enviro NZ, Metro Waste, Veolia, and the founding of WasteCo, which was listed on the NZX in 2022.
Instead of retiring, Dawn and Carl started again—bringing experience back to a service-focused, customer-first business: GoWaste.
