Home > About us

At Bywaters, our ethos is 'service excellence delivered ethically' and these values are at the heart of everything we do.

Our customers
In operation since 1952, we have got to where we are by developing bespoke equipment, vehicles and services to meet the needs of our customers. This, combined with excellent customer service, has enabled us to retain some of our customers for over 20 years. Our reputation has allowed us to build on this customer base and we now service over 2,000 customers in London and the South East. Our depth of expertise has allowed us to develop recycling and waste management solutions for a wide range of business sectors including corporate, commercial, construction and health.

Our staff and our community
We could not have got this far without the dedication and expertise of our staff, 80% of whom live in the local community. We value our people and consider their enjoyment and personal development vital to our future success. More details are available if you are interested in joining the Bywaters team.

We take our role in the community very seriously, supporting many local charities and initiatives. We are developing our training centre at Bow in 2008 in order to be able to share our recycling experience with the wider community.

The environment
We are passionate about the environment and aim to deliver continual environmental improvement to both Bywaters and our customers. More details are available about our environmental commitment.
