Porirua City Council

Construction & Demolition Facility: machinery

We are developing a facility to process construction and demolition waste at Spicer Landfill, so that it can be diverted from landfill and repurposed. Construction and demolition waste currently makes up 53.8% of the total material disposed at the landfill. Continuing to landfill C&D material in these volumes will bring the landfill it to its end of life much sooner than necessary, and diverting wood will reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of Council.

We need to procure three large items of machinery to operate the C&D facility: a screen, density separator and picking station. This will include the freight and installation of equipment, as well as training and initial set up costs. The ability to supply machinery in a timely manner will be relevant to our procurement decision. We'd like to place an order for the machinery before the end of December 2023, and have the facility operational by the end of June 2024.
