We help New Zealand organisations do something better with their organic waste

Every business generates organic waste. Most of it ends up in a landfill — trucked away, out of sight, and out of mind. But with pressure growing on organisations to demonstrate responsible waste management, that approach is becoming harder to justify.

Little Buddies works with corporates, large hospitality groups, significant landowners, and local Waikato businesses to find a better answer. Our work covers four areas, and most clients start with one before growing into others.

Consulting

For organisations that want a strategy.

Strategic advice for organisations that want to handle organic waste better — on their own site. We assess your situation, design a system that works within your constraints, and guide you through every step including council consent.

Managed Operations

For organisations that want it handled.

For organisations who want it fully handled. We design, build, and run your composting or vermiculture system — so you get the outcome without needing to become an expert in the process.

Waste Brokerage

Got a problem? We'll find the solution.

Got a waste problem you haven't been able to solve? We'll find the solution. We connect organisations across New Zealand with the right waste carriers and processing options — drawing on a network built over years in this industry.

Food Waste Collection

Small solution for local businesses. 

Local food waste collection for businesses across the Waikato. We pick it up, keep it out of landfill, and process it through our vermiculture network to produce nutrient-dense compost that goes back into the soil.
