About this business
In the broker's words
Full description, as written by the brokerNORTH QLD WASTE, RECYCLING andCONSTRUCTION SUPPLIES GROUP
Waste and Construction Supplies Group North Queensland
$1.44M Normalised EBITDA
$6.1M Revenue
An outstanding opportunity to acquire an established regional group of three complementary businesses servicing council, commercial, civil and residential customers across North Qld.
Established in 2016 as a single skip bin operation, the group has been built over ten years into a multi-depot platform covering bin hire and council kerbside collection, liquid waste, portable sanitation, a government-backed recycling program, and ready-mix and landscaping supplies.
Combined revenue has grown 13% in three years, from $5.40M to $6.12M.
The owners are now preparing to retire, presenting a rare opportunity to secure a proven regional operator with the fleet, the contracts and 15 to 20 staff already in place.
Purchase Option
Offered as a share sale of the trading entities, keeping contracts, licences and the recycling program operator agreement in place. A structured handover is available.
Business Highlights
- FY23 Revenue $5.40M and FY26 Revenue $6,116,183, up 13%
- FY26 EBITDA (normalised) $1,443,256 and FY26 EBITDA $1,279,697
- Three businesses, five income streams, no single stream dominates
- Council kerbside collection, mowing and cleaning, and civil supply contracts
- Authorised operator of a government-backed recycling program across the region
- Owned fleet, bins, vacuum trucks, batching plant and agitator trucks included
- 15 to 20 staff across depot operations, collection crews and administration
Operational Strength
This is not a start-up or turnaround. It is a mature, established operation with:
- Experienced staff already running daily operations across multiple depots
- A manager being mentored into day-to-day leadership ahead of handover
- Documented operating and management functions, with staff trained on them
- Depots, fleet and crews shared across waste, recycling and construction supply, keeping costs down
- Long-standing council and community relationships built over ten years
Distance does the heavy lifting here. The nearest alternative processing is more than 300km away by road, which keeps new entrants out and keeps the work local.
Strategic Appeal
The opportunity would suit:
- Waste and environmental services operators wanting an established North Qld footprint
- Civil, transport or construction supply businesses expanding north
- Private equity buy-and-build platforms looking for a regional bolt-on
- Owner-operators ready to make the move and run a regional group hands-on
With $6.1M in revenue across five essential-service income streams, a growth runway from state recycling policy and a backlog of approved-but-unbuilt housing in the region, this is a secure and scalable acquisition.
