1987 With the right facilities available Wm. Munro Construction (Highland) Limited were granted a full unconditional asbestos removal license by the Health and Safety Executive which we have held continuously to date.

1995 Another new development saw the company open a Skip Hire and Waste Collection division and the following year we secured and were awarded the waste management contract with the Ministry of Defence for RAF Kinloss and RAF Lossiemouth. This ongoing contract has now been with Munros for more than fifteen years.
1997 Whilst we were starting to forge a reputation and track record as a waste management specialist, the company continued to win significant construction works, including the £1.5m ground and site works contract for the new Inverness Retail Park.
