DEEPLY embedded in the state’s essential services sector, FOOTT Waste Solutions continue to grow their regional `FOOTTprint’ throughout the Greater Goulburn Valley and North East regions of Victoria. 

With an extensive portfolio of waste management solutions, Shepparton’s FOOTT Waste Solutions is now the largest family-owned and run waste management business in northern Victoria. 

The recent acquisition of local businesses, GV Liquid Waste and Big Vac Waste, along with Chants Liquid Waste in Albury, has enabled FOOTT Waste Solutions to add liquid waste removal to their existing portfolio of waste and recycling services, explained founder, Peter Foott. 

“We believe that to be a successful business you need to continually evolve, or you will get left behind,” he said. 

“For us this means investing in, and offering services that are either different or superior to those offered by our competitors,” Mr Foott said. 

The business’ vast portfolio of services, now encompasses commercial and industrial waste disposal, recycling collection and processing, liquid waste and chemical disposal, waste transport, sortation and recycling; as well as commercial event services, including portable toilet hire. In addition, the team also provide a full suite of regulatory administration services, such as waste management plans, site audits and reporting, along with decades of experience and industry specific advice. 

“Partnering with our clients to help minimize their contribution to landfill is a key focus area of FOOTT Waste Solutions. This is a particularly specialised area that is highly regarded within our industry,” said Mr Foott. 

The theme of evolution is set to continue for the business in 2022, as the team celebrates 30 years in business with the construction of their business premises. Set on a 12-acre block in Carroll Road, Shepparton the new state of the art facility  will feature a 4,500 m2 shed for processing recyclable materials, as well as a new operations and administration building, and aims to bring new efficiencies and even greater statewide serviceability.
