Membership is wide-ranging and multi-disciplinary, including stakeholders from State and Local Governments, operators, industry, environmental consultancies, collectors, recyclers, transporters, researchers, manufacturers, designers, generators, educators, community groups and many more.

The network of State Branches, National Divisions and State Working Groups provide the opportunity for networking, communication and service delivery at both local and topic-specific levels.

The organisation accomplishes these goals by hosting an annual conference, conducting regular workshops and seminars, publishing a newsletter titled Waste Awareness, sector groups, sharing information, and providing networking opportunities for our members. In addition, WasteMINZ works closely with other organisations that also have interests and goals in specialized areas within the waste management field.
