The Buddy System

Revolutionizing onsite waste management and organic waste collection in Cape Town and the Western Cape.

What is The Buddy System?

At Nunn 2 Waste, we recognized a significant gap in traditional waste management, particularly concerning organic waste and source-separation efficiency. Sending trucks to collect mixed waste is no longer sustainable. To combat this, we developed our flagship innovation: The Buddy System. This unique, two-pronged approach combines dedicated onsite personnel with specialized equipment to dramatically increase recycling rates, reduce contamination, and provide a hygienic solution for organic food waste.

The Buddy System is entirely unique to the industry. It is designed for businesses, estates, and institutions that are serious about their environmental footprint and want a hands-off, highly effective waste management solution.

Buddy Onsite Staff

Buddy Onsite Service

The "Buddy Onsite Service" provides you with dedicated, trained Nunn 2 Waste staff—your "Waste Buddies"—stationed directly at your premises. Instead of relying on your own employees to manage the messy and time-consuming task of sorting waste, our professionals handle it at the source.

How It Benefits You:

  • Maximum Resource Recovery: Our staff are trained to identify and separate recyclables meticulously, ensuring nothing of value ends up in the general waste bin.
  • Zero Contamination: By sorting at the source, we prevent recyclable materials (like paper) from being ruined by wet waste, increasing the volume of materials that can actually be recycled.
  • Operational Efficiency: Your staff can focus on their core jobs while we maintain a clean, compliant, and highly efficient waste area on your property.
  • Cost Reduction: By diverting more waste to recycling, you significantly reduce the costly volume of general waste sent to landfill.
Buddy Bucket Organic Waste

Buddy Bucket for Organic Waste

Organic waste (food scraps, garden clippings) is heavy, odorous, and highly problematic when sent to landfills, where it rots and produces methane—a potent greenhouse gas. The "Buddy Bucket" is our specialized solution for capturing this waste hygienically before it becomes a problem.

We provide specially designed, sealable Buddy Buckets to your kitchens, cafeterias, or designated areas. These buckets are designed to contain odors and prevent pests.

The Buddy Bucket Process:

1
Provision

We supply clean, sanitized Buddy Buckets tailored to your volume needs.

2
Collection

You fill the buckets with organic waste. On a scheduled basis, our team arrives to collect the full buckets.

3
Exchange

We immediately swap the full buckets with freshly sanitized, empty ones, ensuring zero downtime and maximum hygiene.

4
Composting

The organic waste is transported to specialized facilities where it is converted into nutrient-rich compost, returning it to the earth.
