We are the only fully compliant and permitted oil collector in the South Island. This provides you with the peace of mind that you are making the best choice for the health of the local environment.
Give us a no-obligation call at 0800 835 645 or email us technicalservices@wm.nz. Our dedicated team would be happy to chat through your waste oil situation and requirements.
We bring 26 years of expertise and experience operating oil collection and processing in the South Island prioritising traceability and assurance of legal disposal.
Waste oils such as petrol and solvents can have harmful effects on the environment. Recovering oil ensures they don't contaminate soil, water, or ecosystems.
Our WM Technical Services fleet drivers are HSNO and Land Transport Act compliant, approved handlers and endorsed to transport dangerous goods.
The oil is recycled through processing plants in either Christchurch or Tauranga. The process removes water, sludge, and heavy metals.
The recycled process produces a high-quality, cost-effective alternative fuel for many industries, such as horticulture and meat processing industries.
We are fully certified as a Hazardous Substances Location under the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996. We implement a Quality System certified by QAS International that meets the requirements of PAS99:2012; ISO 9001:2015; ISO 45001:2018 and ISO 14001:2015.
Find out more below on how we combine the knowledge of how to recover and supply oil with strict adherence to the highest compliance standards, including product quality, the safety of our people and our customers, and leadership on how to minimise the impact of hazardous waste on our environment.
Our fleet team comprises mechanical and electrical engineers who provide technical support to all our operations across the South Island. To ensure our fleet and equipment continue to improve and develop, nominated team members travel the world each year to find inspiration for new waste management, safety, and productivity improvement ideas and innovations.
This means WM New Zealand designs and builds purpose-built collection vehicles that include all the very latest technology, rather than simply buying generic and inefficient vehicles straight off the shelf.Our Christchurch oil tanker fleet contains two trucks/trailers and four trucks which will benefit our customers.
Removal frequency across the South Island
WM Technical Services has been in business in the South Island for 30 years and in the oil business for more than 13 years. During this time, we have maintained strong and trusted industry partnerships which benefit our customers.
We store and distribute our product from our Christchurch WM Technical Services branch which meets all compliance standards for storing used oil. All storage and plant processing tanks have Stationary Container Systems Compliance Certificates.
This means customers will not be exposed to an unnecessary level of brand/reputation risk. We invite some of our larger customers to our Christchurch site to get comfort on our storage and handling compliance.
