A holistic approach to minimising and managing waste

Tonkin + Taylor understands that each waste project presents its own unique set of challenges, including current and future demand, waste source and potential hazardous activity, disposal and recovery complexities, spatial and economic constraints, and evolving legislative frameworks and regulations.

We are passionate about supporting our clients in developing resilient waste and resource recovery systems throughout Australia. Our multidisciplinary team has the technical capabilities, experience, and dedication required to help policy makers, local authorities, and the waste industry make the right decisions to optimize their approach to managing waste and materials under their control.

We advise on waste strategy initiatives and alternative waste treatment options, such as waste to energy, waste disposal/landfill operation and design maximisation, resource recovery facility design, environmental compliance and management systems, and post-closure options for landfills.

We also have an in-depth understanding of waste and environmental requirements within a local context, which ensures projects are developed in accordance with state specifications.

We offer leading expertise that spans the entire waste cycle.
