REthinking Waste - From Recycling to Resources · S2 Ep 23 - Landfill Engineering - All about Landfills - Lincoln Coe · 30 Jul 2026 podcast

And then there's a number of other sites around the city that receive things like rubble or low-level contaminated soil, those types of things.

So there's a range of different types of facilities, even in Dunedin, which we're really fortunate about because for Green Island landfill, our primary reason for being is to make sure that all of that

hazardous waste and the municipal solid waste that is going to cause a problem if it's within the community, whether that's on the street or in a business, that that is safely taken care of.

So that's our role.

But those other types of landfills play a really important role for the other types of waste.

So, yeah, it's a team game, really.

Yeah, so transport – sorry, transfer stations play a key role in terms of being a local community-based location to drop off waste.

So Waka Iti is a great example, Lisa, because it wouldn't – it's not unreasonable, but –

um it's not ideal for a person living in waikuete to have to bring their waste to green island landfill you know um you know 20 30 minutes down the road so transfer stations play that role within a community where the council or in some or in a lot of other places private operators will have a location where that local community can drop off their waste and then uh

In our situation at Waikoiti, we then transfer that waste from Waikoiti to Green Island Landfill.

So it's kind of a satellite system where you've got these satellites that then allow the council to take responsibility for transferring that waste.

Is there any others?

Not within Dunedin City.

But yeah, I can go south of the Clutha.

So I can go to Clutha.

And Clutha have seven or eight different transfer stations of really small size, just pocketed around there.

And transfer stations sometimes also allow and provide for diversion of waste as well, so drop-off opportunities for cardboard and steel and glass and recyclables and those types of things, which is rural communities have the same, or not the same needs, rural communities have waste needs, exactly like a city community will as well.

Oh, have you?

So the number one task that we need to do responsibly is to receive the waste, tuck it away nicely and make sure that it's safe underneath the landfill camp.
