Wash Against Waste

the fully reusable option

Have you heard of our most exciting project?

The Wash Against Waste trailer!

WAW is equipped with an industrial dishwasher and plenty of reusable plates, bowls, cutlery and cups.
On the day, event visitors can borrow items from the wash trailer or food vendors,
return them to be washed and we restock vendors again.
Hire charges apply.

  • The Wash Against Waste trailer comes fully equipped with an industrial dishwasher and food serviceware

  • An event just needs to provide power and a supply of fresh water via a hose

  • The grey water is stored in an onboard tank which allows up to 80 wash cycles

  • The wash cycles take 2 minutes so you get a fast turnover of reusable food serviceware

  • The trailer has been used to service entire events of around 2000 people

  • The trailer also supplies hot water for the pre-washing

  • You can either use your own or the trailer's food serviceware.

Zero waste

With WAW, we make it easy for events to adopt a true zero waste approach, moving away from single use culture!

Waste No More’s Wash Against Waste trailer was launched in 2019 with support from Nelson City Council.
