Drurys Environmental Services Ltd

Drury’s Environmental Services Ltd offer a dry waste collection service in various open and closed containers, ranging from 2yd up to 40yd RORO bins. We also offer an open gate policy where registered waste carriers can dispose of waste covered within the permit they operate to.

We also offer our own crushed building product from recycled material that has undergone a crushing and screening process in our state-of-the-art equipment on site. We have strong working relationships with a network of quarries throughout East Anglia. This has given us the ability to supply a wide range of Aggregates for commercial and residential building and construction uses, to all relevant specifications of size and grade.

WASTE RECYCLING

We operate a three phase process of waste segregation and treatment within the working parameters of the planning authorisation and permit requirements. We have set realistic targets for landfill reduction and recycling practices which has been fully adopted by all staff within the business. We take pride in being one of the largest independent waste companies in the area and have a wealth of experience by employing WAMITAB (Waste Management Industry Training & Advisory Board) accredited staff to ensure compliance with ever-changing legislation and best practice.

HISTORY

The Drury family started in business just after the 2nd world war with a small transport business based in the North Norfolk village of Southrepps consisting of a converted ambulance! Most of the work in those early days was carrying farm animals and this wonderful black and white photograph from the Drury archives shows Mr B E Drury (Billy) and his son Michael at the local livestock market.

The business now has a fleet of modern long distance haulage trucks and skip lorries and a purpose built range of warehouses for storage of customers good. Drurys Skip Hire and Waste Recycling Services was formed as a result of the purchase in the early 1990s of a local business Willard Skips. Due to the growth and success of this further modern buildings have been added to the site in North Walsham and a full waste recycling centre with modern machinery and equipment has been established. Michael Drury is still running the business together with his senior management team and he has also diversified into property development through a sister company Southrepps Developments Limited. Still very much a family business to this day this contributes to the emphasis on providing a competitive and very personalised and efficient service to it’s customers both private and trade.
