Our Community Commitments
We support local
Smart Environmental reinvests strongly in the regions it operates in by:
- spending locally
- employing locally
- spending profits locally
- supporting local companies, and
- openly seeking and contracting local subcontractors
We are 100% New Zealand owned and support New Zealand business alike.
Reuse Shops
We believe that a Reuse shop is a natural fit for Resource Recovery as it provides a portal for the recovery of any reusable goods from the waste stream. Our preference is to work closely with the community to ensure that a Reuse Shop would work and is sustainable.
Currently we operate Reuse shops in:
- Thames-Coromandel
- Tasman
- Queenstown Lakes
We always employ our people from your community
