Through our Rinsery service, we help events eliminate single-use waste by supplying reusable cups, plates, and cutlery – then collecting, washing, and sanitising them for the next event. And with our Waste Warriors service, we provide staffed recycling stations, signage, and support to help eventgoers sort waste correctly and keep valuable resources out of landfill.
We’re always happy to help so feel free to reach out if you are planning to run an event.
Perfect for festivals, community gatherings, markets and private functions, The Rinsery is a simple way to reduce landfill, ditch disposable packaging, and show your community what a low-waste future can look like in action.
Why choose The Rinsery?
It’s fully managed – we drop off, pick up and do the dirty work
It keeps thousands of single-use items out of landfill
It’s an easy way to meet your sustainability goals and stand out as a responsible host
It looks good – and it feels even better
Whether you’re catering for 50 or 5,000, The Rinsery scales with your needs and pairs perfectly with our Waste Warriors team to help deliver a truly zero-waste event.
Let’s make waste-free the new normal.
From school fairs and concerts to cultural festivals and markets, Waste Warriors takes the guesswork out of event waste and turns it into a positive, practical learning moment for everyone involved.
Here’s how we do it:
We plan with you ahead of time to assess packaging and recycling options
We supply clearly marked bin stations for landfill, recycling and compost
Our team stays on site to guide guests and sort out contamination
After the event, we measure your waste and report back with diversion stats – so you know exactly how much you saved from landfill
Our service has helped Hawke’s Bay events achieve diversion rates of up to 84%. And we’re always aiming higher.
