ExportING
To decarbonise our supply chain within New Zealand we have expanded exporting from 2 ports (Auckland and Lyttelton) to 8, to ensure we are efficient with our road transportation. We also import material from the South Pacific Islands and Australia, to aggregate with our volume, then export together.

FROM LOCAL COLLECTION
TO GLOBAL CIRCULATION
At Phoenix Recycling, we turn New Zealand's recyclables into resources for the world. Every step of our export process is a carefully choreographed effort to keep materials in motion and out of the landfill. Here's how we do it:
-
Gathering Resources from Across Aotearoa
We partner with businesses, manufacturers, councils, and other locals throughout the country to gather high-quality recyclable materials. Whether it's metal, batteries, or e-waste, we ensure every material collected meets export criteria from the start.
-
Sorting and Shaping for the Journey
In our facilities, we meticulously sort, clean, and prepare materials, ensuring only the highest quality makes the cut. Contaminants are removed, bales are packed tight, and everything is primed to meet the strict standards of our international partners. We don't just sort recyclables; we set them up for success.
-
Navigating the Red Tape
Phoenix manages the complex web of international regulations required to export recyclable materials. We handle customs clearance, compliance with the Basel Convention, and all necessary trade documentation, ensuring the shipment is both legally compliant and ready for smooth entry into its destination market.
-
Global Partners, Shared Purpose
With a network of trusted buyers spanning Asia, Europe, and beyond, we connect each material with the right partner, those who value sustainability as much as we do. Your recyclables become raw materials for reprocessing and manufacturing, breathing new life into products that power the future.
-
Sustainable Shipping, Smooth Sailing
We plan every shipment with sustainability in mind. Working with eco-conscious shipping partners, we keep routes efficient and carbon footprints light. No wasted time, no wasted energy, just a seamless flow from our shores to theirs.
-
Transparent Tracking, Real Results
From dock to destination, we track every shipment. We know exactly where our materials are going and the impact they create for a cleaner, greener tomorrow.
At Phoenix Recycling, we go beyond brokerage by offering a full-service export process that prioritises sustainability, compliance, and precision. Whether you're a business looking to maximise the value of your recyclables or a municipal partner seeking global solutions, our expert team ensures every material we handle contributes to a cleaner, more sustainable future.
