APrince Consulting trading as 'APC', is a multi-disciplinary company offering practical hands-on experience and expertise in all aspects of waste management and resource recovery.

Anne Prince established the business in 1997, based on her extensive experience in initiating and pioneering waste minimisation and management programs within Australia, which were then successfully translated internationally.

APC differentiates itself from other consultancies by adopting a hands-on approach rather than using desk-top responses in developing answers for clients. This philosophy has ensured the company’s growth to one of Australia’s leading waste and environmental specialty companies. Our waste auditing experience is unrivalled, with over 40,000 households audited nationally since 1997. 

We have developed and implemented world best-practice strategies and innovative resource-recovery solutions for communities Australia-wide. We specialise in regional, rural and remote Australia. The breadth and depth of our experience put APC at the forefront of its industry. The company’s motto is “AP” – Always Professional.

Since 1997, APC has grown from a one-person business to an expanding dynamic consultancy. APC has undertaken over 450 projects for more then 150 clients indicating our high retention rate of satisfied clients.
