Waste infrastructure support

Waste infrastructure support

Australia's waste management landscape is shifting. Stricter regulations, pressure to reduce landfill reliance and the transition toward circular economy principles are reshaping how waste infrastructure is planned, designed and operated.

pitt&sherry helps councils, waste operators and industrial clients respond to this changing environment including landfill cell design and closure, environmental approvals support and assessment at legacy sites.

Our approach is grounded in decades of hands-on project delivery experience. We understand how regulatory frameworks can interact, where the pressure points may arise, and what is often required to move from planning through to construction and long-term operation.

Our Approach

How we work

Experience with complex site challenges

Experience with complex site challenges

Our experience with complex waste sites informs a pragmatic approach to site specific constraints and unknowns including undocumented landfill material, challenging site conditions and contamination across multiple land ownerships. We work with clients to develop practical, project specific responses where standard approaches may not be suitable.
