WDS is a collaboration between Auckland Council and WM New Zealand, managing Whitford Landfill & Energy Park and East Tamaki Refuse Transfer Station.
Formed in 1994 for Manukau's waste, evolved post WasteCare's acquisition by WM New Zealand and Manukau's amalgamation into Auckland Council.
We are committed to upholding and improving New Zealand’s future through the modern management of Auckland’s waste by-products. Read more about our sustainability statement.

WDS is an unincorporated joint venture between Auckland Council and Waste Management NZ Ltd, operating Whitford Landfill and East Tamaki Transfer Station. It was established in 1994 to manage waste from the Manukau Council Area.
Modern landfills in New Zealand play a crucial role in safely containing waste that cannot be recycled. They feature advanced systems to manage environmental impacts, such as capturing over 90% of landfill gas for electricity generation, preventing liquid runoff with complex lining systems, and controlling pests and odours by compacting waste daily and covering the operating area.
Besides containing waste, modern landfills contribute positively to the environment. For instance, our landfills support extensive riparian planting, native tree restoration, and pest control efforts on surrounding lands. Wetlands near our sites attract diverse birdlife, including at-risk species like the weweia (dabchick).
At East Tamaki Refuse Transfer Station, payment must be made via debit or credit card. Cash payments are not accepted.
