SWS is committed to innovation and resource recovery as Tasmania's largest integrated waste management organisation, operating an extensive network of waste management facilities in southern Tasmania.
SWS is focussed on growth and has an ambitious long-term strategy to optimise its key strengths for the benefit of the broader Tasmanian community.
