Our stories

WM Waste Management Services is an Australian-owned business operating from Boronia, in Victoria’s South Eastern Suburbs. Established in 1985, WM has provided an invaluable recycling service to the local community for well over three decades.

We have been innovating in the Waste Industry since 1985 and will continue to do so for the future. We were the first waste collection company to introduce hybrid trucks (diesel/electric) on Victorian roads (2008) and the first waste collection company to introduce 100% electric collection trucks (2018)
