REMONDIS secures Snowy Monaro contract extension

REMONDIS Landfill and Transfer Station Manager Russell Cairns said the new trucks would make a difference as the company’s long-term relationship with the local area continues.

“As REMONDIS does across Australia, and globally, we focus on tailor-making services to suit the needs of each community, which is what we’ll continue doing across the Snowy Monaro region,” Russell said.

“It’s a unique and challenging region because we service communities that are spread out, which requires detailed planning and coordination.

“Weather conditions and tourism-driven population fluctuations mean we have to be flexible and work with Council to manage situations on an ad-hoc basis. That might involve resorting to using wheel chains during periods of snow and ice, or adjusting pick-up patterns depending on changing circumstances.

“Snowy Monaro locals are known for being friendly and cooperative, which makes working in the area particularly enjoyable.”

REMONDIS Australia operates across the region every week of the year, with its two trucks travelling more than 1,200 kilometres per week.
