In business for just two years, Portadown Recycling & Skip Hire Ltd has already established itself as one of the leading waste management companies in Northern Ireland. Skips of all shapes and sizes are available from Portadown Recycling & Skip Hire
P
ortadown Recycling & Skip Hire may be a relatively new player in the Northern Ireland waste management sector, but it already well established, especially in the areas of recycling, skip hire, hazardous waste and asbestos management. Founded in February 2011 by fatherand-son Bobby and Wesley Jameson, the company has grown rapidly to employ 20 staff at its busy Co. Armagh plant. Operating an eight-strong fleet, the family-run concern has a provincewide presence and offers a wide range of waste management services to both the commercial and domestic sectors. “We have experienced good growth over the past two years,” Wesley proudly explains. “We specialise in recycling, skip hire, non-permitted waste, business solutions and asbestos services. We started off by covering the Mid-Ulster region and quickly expanded to covering Belfast and other parts of Northern Ireland. Both my father and I have many years of experience in the waste management business and that has stood us in good stead.” Licenced by NIEA (Northern Ireland Environment Agency) and providing a cost-effective and efficient service for the management and disposal of domestic and commercial waste, Portadown Recycling & Skip Hire is committed to delivering the highest possible service to its customers. The

company is dedicated to the diversion of waste from landfill through the re-use of valuable resources to create closed material life cycles. Portadown Recycling & Skip Hire is recognised as one of the largest asbestos disposal experts in the North. Employing fully-qualified asbestos surveyors with 10 years’ experience, the company can conduct asbestos surveys from as little as £105. If your premises were built prior to 1999, there is a high chance they contain asbestos. There are numerous options available if your survey does identify asbestos, with removal usually a last resort. At Portadown Recycling & Skip Hire, they can treat and remove your asbestos in the most cost-effective manner. “We’re probably best known for our range of asbestos services. Asbestos is a hidden killer and we are one of the few companies out there who are fully qualified to survey, remove and dispose of it. While our residual waste goes to landfill sites in Northern Ireland, our asbestos waste is shipped to England where it is disposed of at a special site. “One of our biggest and most highprofile contracts to date was at the old Maze Prison in Belfast. We removed 1,200 tonnes of asbestos and shipped it to England for disposal. The contract was carried out over a seven-week period. There was a lot of decontaminating work carried out on the
site,” company director Wesley says. Another string to Portadown Recycling’s bow is Skip Hire. Skips of all shapes and sizes for domestic, commercial and industrial use are available. If you require a skip for business use, please call Wesley who will discuss your needs and can tailor a package towards your business that will save you money and increase your overall recycling rates. Portadown Recycling’s Skip Hire service is available throughout Northern Ireland, covering an area from Dungannon to Antrim. Portadown Recycling & Skip Hire provides a wide range of business solutions which can help customers to keep their waste management costs to a minimum. Bobby and Wesley like to meet their customers and discuss what waste streams they have, and how they currently manage the waste they create. Once they know the systems you have in place, they can then create a package which will not only increase your recycling rates, but will also reduce your waste costs, overheads and increase your profit margins. Portadown Recycling & Skip Hire’s waste management and business solutions is a free service, so you are under no obligation to hire a skip from them or use the package discussed.
