A BIG THANK YOU FROM PMG

PMG would like to take this opportunity to thank customers for their kind messages following our recent award win.

We’re proud to be Bristol’s Environmental Business of the Year and it’s fair to say we couldn’t have done it without you! 

Running a business is all about building relationships with customers, and that is certainly the case for us.

The team at PMG enjoys working with our customers and always go the extra mile to make sure you’re happy.

Whether it's sweeping your roads or processing your sweeper and gully waste we strive to deliver a truly award winning service and thank you for your continued custom.

' Three's Not a Crowd ! '

Christmas has come early at PMG.
We have just taken delivery of  3 Brand new Johnston VT651's.
These new machines are all on 15 tonne chassis, one being a DAF and two on the new VOLVO. The VOLVO's are a new adventure for PMG and the 3 year bumper to bumper warranty offering was a key point in our decision to purchase from VOLVO. The DAF is a tried and tested machine within our fleet of 35 sweepers and the new additions strengthen our very busy fleet. PMG are pleased with the new machines and our compliments go to Johnston again for providing a quality product on new chassis.

'Waste Recycling Operative Required'

PMG have a vacancy for an Operative to work in our waste recycling facility in Bristol. The successful person will be helping us achieve our proud status of 'zero waste to Landfill'. Our facility recycles the waste generated by our own fleet of vehicles and also for external customers. The ideal candidate will have a class 2 HGV licence, experience of operating machinery and working with waste. This is a good opportunity to join a well established company that is going places. Please call Dave to discuss this further on our main office number.

Legal Requirements for Tipping Sweeper Waste

Our licensed Transfer facility in St Phillips, Bristol continues to go from strength to strength with a number of high profile customers now taking full advantage of our central location and our Recycling capabilities. 

Prior to changes in legislation regarding Sweeper waste, we were exploring our options for recycling all material collected by our fleet.

Following the changes, the legislation states:

• Under European landfill regulations, liquid waste – Road sweepings on average contains 10% water/ liquid content – can no longer be sent to landfill. In addition to this, all waste must be treated to the legally defined standards before it can be taken to Landfill.
• Where possible, Road Sweepers must travel to a licensed site in order for waste treatment to take place. To tip sweepings on their own site, Companies must have the appropriate environmental permit and an impermeable surface with controlled drainage before it can tip. The Sweeper must NOT empty near drains, surface water, groundwater or bare ground.
• All companies have a legal and moral responsibility to dispose of their waste correctly.

 PMG Services are licensed as both waste carriers and as a treatment facility, which enables us to provide a complete waste management solution.

Our facility is a simple solution to treating your road sweepings and gully waste and is unaffected by the annual increase of Landfill tax. We are committed to employ best environmental practices by recovering both the liquid and the solid content from all loads discharged on our site. These factors are important to our customers and are why PMG Services are the market leader in the South west of England. We are now in phase 2 of our plans for the facility, with the addition of new technology and we will update you early in 2014 once Phase 2 is completed.

In the meantime, if you have any enquiries regarding rates for tipping or your legal requirements, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
