Proffer's Trolleys
Beautiful, purpose-built emission-free food collection workhorses.
Every weekday our committed, hard-working volunteers walk around Wellington's inner-city collecting surplus food from 65 different eateries. There are four collection routes, two volunteers per route. One of the things that makes Wellington amazing is it's compact CBD. Everything is in walkable distance! That means we don't need gas guzzling vehicles to do our redistribution work, we can use regular ol' supermarket trolleys. This cuts down massively on emissions and costs!
