ABOUT THE WASTE GROUP.
OUR AIMS

We are aiming to
change the perception of the waste industry

We aim to change a lot! Historically, that the waste industry has been perceived as somewhat dirty and not environmentally conscious. A perception we aim to change. By encapsulating all of our company goals, we can make this happen, and we can set ourselves aside from our competition. We have experienced both sides of the coin when it comes to customer service. We care about how we are treated, and for that reason we treat our customers and suppliers in the same way that we expect to be treated. Your business matters to us whether we are servicing your skips correctly, to ensuirning that we are paying invoices on time.

The history of
The Waste Group

We were established as A&D Skips Back in 2007; we had only one lorry and a small yard in Poole Dorset. Over a short period of time, and with increased business, two further lorries and additional skips were acquired. By 2012, we had four lorries and 200 skips to our name!

In September 2013, A&D Skips Co Ltd received new ownership and new investment. This investment has seen a significant increase in turnover, with six new Volvo skip lorries, two new RoRo lorries, and a new recycling centre, doubling the amount of skip and RoRos available.

On 1st July 2017, some 10 years after we established, we rebranded as The Waste Group a name we embrace, as it allows us to aim for the future and all it will offer.
