Where do you fit

Two different jobs.
One local crew.

A blocked septic at a farmhouse and a compliance schedule for a food plant are not the same problem. Pick your side and we will take you straight to what applies.

Emergency response

It never happens
at a good time

If a septic system is backing up into the house, a blocked drain is flooding a yard, or a spill has to be contained before it reaches a waterway, we are on 24 hours a day and a local person picks up the phone.

Dargo, Wellington Shire

A major drain blockage threatened two homes and the wider Dargo community, with over 250,000 litres of backed-up water putting properties and public safety at risk. Working alongside Wellington Shire Council, our combo jetter unit cleared the blockage and restored drainage.
Two homes protected. A community kept dry.

Why Mac Waste

One truck in 2001.
A fleet today.

Bruce Mack farmed for forty years before starting Mac Waste with a single truck. 25 years on it is run by his sons, Paddy and Doug, and it still works the way he set it up: local people, local knowledge, and turning up when you said you would.
