ABOUT THE COMPANY

Founded in 1932, JJ’s Waste & Recycling is Australia’s largest family-owned and operated waste management company. From our beginnings as a small family business, we’ve grown into a global operation servicing Australia, New Zealand and the United States.

We’re actively involved in environmental management and training, converting waste into clean energy, diverting food waste from landfill by turning it into compost, and manufacturing customised waste management equipment. We also specialise in asbestos removal, refining and recycling oil, managing and maintaining our fleet in-house, and leveraging our own bespoke technology systems. On top of that, we operate a dedicated scientific and medical distribution division — making us a truly diverse and innovative organisation.

Despite our size, we are still a family run business and along with that comes good old fashion family values, such as honesty, integrity, humility and respect. Our culture is built on collaboration, accountability, reliability and performance, where every employee is valued and supported to grow, contribute and succeed. We remain focused on the future - investing in our people, service provision, safety, technology and sustainable waste solutions.

No agencies please, we’ve got this one covered! Unsolicited communication will result in the forfeiture of any engagement or partnership.
