From the Wine Manager to the Farmer… first hand experience speaks for itself!

  • "Using recycled posts helps reduce the farm's environmental impact. We've also passed on the posts to six other local farmers and hope other farms in our Waimata catchment will be keen to jump on board with using Repost too."

  • The redevelopment of our Homestead Vineyard meant a whole LOAD of vineyard posts could have gone to waste - but this doesn't suit our sustainable business model - enter our mates at Repost, to come on-site, process and create new farm posts! Reducing waste from landfill AND providing fence posts for farmers, a great combination if you ask me.

  • "We have to date installed 2 km of fencing and plan to fence a further 2km at least. Overall, they have been a cost effective quality fence posts. Tightly bundled for easy transport. We highly recommend."

  • “ Repost has processed roughly 75% of our broken vineyard posts for the last two years. They have developed a very good, safe and efficient process that deals with one of our biggest waste problems.”

    David Collingwood, Vineyard Manager, Yealands Estate

  • I've used them this year. The 1/4 rounds are just as good as new except cheaper! fine using a rammer, very easy to deal with, fast to deliver. I'd recommend Repost to anyone any day of the week!"

  • "Repost were in and out in a couple of weeks, the posts were gone, they tidied up their mess, the price per post equation near equalled the landfill fees so it was a real winner! But most importantly, they have solved the issue of a huge waste problem within the grape industry and repurposed the posts to save them going to landfill and providing an excellent source of posts for use in farms New Zealand wide".
