Enviro NZ is pleased to confirm the acquisition of Allens United, a long-standing Waikato
operator specialising in liquid waste collection, management and disposal,
hydro excavation and essential infrastructure services.
Established in 1986 by Malcolm Sturgeon, Allens United began with a focus on septic tank cleaning and has grown steadily over the past 35 years. Under the leadership of Malcolm’s son Paul Sturgeon and his wife Janine, the business expanded its fleet, broadened its service offering and built a reputation as a trusted provider of industrial, commercial and residential liquid waste services across the Waikato.
A major foundation of the business is its privately owned Wickham Street liquid waste processing facility, the largest of its kind in the Waikato. Used exclusively for Allens United customers, the site enables efficient scheduling, improved fleet utilisation and reliable turnaround times. With capacity to handle increased volumes across selected waste streams, the facility also supports future growth as the region develops.
A proven specialist in essential liquid waste services, Allens United brings deep capability across a wide range of liquid waste and infrastructure services, including:
- Liquid waste collection and transport
- Trade waste services for industrial and commercial operators
- Septic tank cleaning and routine maintenance
- Grease trap cleaning and food service waste removal
- Hydro excavation and vacuum truck services
- CCTV pipeline inspections and reporting
- Drain unblocking and jetting
- Potable water delivery
- Emergency spill response and contamination clean-up
- Support for local authority wastewater and stormwater networks
These services are critical to keeping community assets safe, compliant and fully operational, work that aligns closely with Enviro NZ’s commitment to protecting people and the environment.
Strengthening Enviro NZ’s Waikato capability
The Waikato region continues to grow, supported by major developments such as the Ruakura Superhub and expanding industrial precincts. Allens United’s strong local presence, experienced team and established customer relationships position us well to support this growth.
By bringing Allens United into Enviro NZ, we’re combining their local expertise and specialist fleet with our nationwide resources, technical capability and sustainability systems. Customers will continue to receive the same reliable service they know, with the added benefit of a broader network and access to Enviro NZ’s full range of waste and resource recovery solutions.
We’re proud to welcome Allens United to Enviro NZ and look forward to supporting customers across the Waikato with safe, dependable and future-focused liquid waste services.
