Our Testimonials & Reviews

“Before working with Brown Recycling, we were struggling with inconsistent collections, overflowing bins, and a recycling process that wasn’t as efficient as it could have been. Managing our waste was taking up unnecessary time and causing frustration for staff.

Since partnering with them, we’ve seen a significant improvement in both our waste management and recycling performance. Collections are always on time, recycling has become much more straightforward, and the whole process runs far more smoothly.

It’s been a pleasure working with them, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services to any business looking for a reliable waste management partner.”

“We’re delighted to announce a new partnership with Brown Recycling Limited, a localy owned family waste management buisness. This colaberation marks another step in Trentham’s ongoing commitment to sustainability.

Together, we’re introducing SSR (Source Segregated Recycling), helping us manage waste more efficiently and reduce our enviromental impact. A big thank you to Brown Recycling for joining us on this journey.”

“Brown Recycling has been our trusted total waste management partner for the last decade. In that time, we’ve been able to build an incredible recycling culture internally, where every employee knows their role in our sustainability journey.

Over the years, Brown Recycling has implemented various innovative recycling projects, that have included splitting waste streams into easily manageable bins and
highlighting food waste as a discrete waste when the site moved in 2021. Via this approach, we’ve been able to greatly improve our material segregation at source – an achievement we’re incredibly proud of.

As we look ahead, we continue to work with Brown Recycling on new ways to become even more recycling conscious and efficient in our day-to-day operations. Our partnership drives improvement with the support, level of expertise, and professionalism that Brown consistently provide.”

“Norcros needed experienced and professional contractors to support its decision to close, decommission and sell its tile manufacturing plant in Stoke-on-Trent without compromising the Group’s sustainability or regulatory compliance policies.

Brown Recycling proved a valuable waste management partner in achieving these objectives at a realistic cost and within the target completion date.”

“The staff at Brown Recycling were great, they all got stuck in helping us clear the building out, and they also gave us great advice on the most efficient and sustainable way to dispose of our rubbish in the future.

This will be a partnership we hope to continue even after the renovations are complete.”

“As a business solely focused on food preparation and the takeaway market, it is essential for us to have a reliable and effective partner for the management of our waste. Brown Recycling have proved to be just that.

Having a single provider and a consistent approach across all our outlets makes the whole process so much easier. We can concentrate on what we do best and leave Brown Recycling to get on with doing a great job with that part of our operation.

The whole service has been easy to set up and Brown Recycling are very much trusted to genuinely have our business concerns at the heart of decisions made.”

“Working with Brown Recycling to enhance the internal recycling processes at KMF Group has been an informative and a positive experience. Their expertise was evident from the initial on-site discussion and audit to the implementation of new recycling solutions.

Their proactive approach has ensured we were ready for the new Simpler Recycling regulations well ahead of time. The real-time reporting through their online portal has been invaluable, allowing us to monitor our progress and make ongoing decisions which offer positive contributions to our
ISO 14001 and Sustainability commitment.

This project has not only addressed our immediate recycling needs but has also set us on a path towards better sustainability practices,something our team has keenly embraced. We appreciate Brown Recycling’s support and look forward to continuing our collaboration.”

“The Talentum Learning Trust have worked with Brown Recycling for several years and more recently established a Service Level Agreement that covers six first schools in the Trust.

The company offered us competitive pricing enabling us to save costs within our schools. The account manager and customer service staff are very helpful, offering a professional and efficient service.

Brown Recycling provide a reliable and flexible waste management service which is extremely important in our environment, working around school closures and the different needs of each school.”

When our waste contract was due for renewal, Brown Recycling were the obvious choice. Not only did they offer us better value for money, they also offered us a more reliable service.

The change over between suppliers was seamless thanks to the proactivity of the Brown Recycling team. We have a waste stream which will stop production if it isn’t serviced on time, and they provide the flexibility we need to ensure we can keep running.

They were very open and honest, happy to show us around their facilities and provide all the duty of care documentation we needed for our different waste streams including hazardous waste.

Their portal is a great tool to access everything in one place. We can download details such as waste collected and how it was processed, which is important in helping us demonstrate our Net Zero target.

I would recommend Brown Recycling to anyone looking for a reliable and helpful waste management service.

Brown Recycling have been fantastic supporters of Dougie Mac for many years. Our annual Christmas tree recycling scheme has generated more than £65,000 over the last three years and this simply would not have been possible without the wonderful support and sponsorship from Browns.

All the money Brown Recycling has helped to raise enables us to continue our specialist care services for local children, young adults and adults facing a life-limiting condition. Their continued support really is making a big difference to our local community.

In addition, members of the Brown team have also taken part in a range of other fundraising activities and challenges to raise money for the hospice, including our annual Christmas Jumper Day

As more and more grassroots football clubs across Staffordshire manage and maintain their own facilities, our partnership with Brown Recycling can hopefully assist our member clubs with their total waste management too – whether that be waste, recycling, scrap metal, or skip hire. The recent launch of The FA’s sustainability strategy sets our clear objectives for how football can collectively play its part, and Staffordshire FA’s partnership with Brown Recycling can certainly assist us and our member clubs in achieving some of those objectives.

We have worked with Brown Recycling for a number of years on our waste management and have always been hugely impressed with their professional and efficient service.

We are delighted to welcome them on board as our official Sustainability Partner in 2024, tying in with our increased efforts to ensure the festival has as low a carbon footprint as possible. The Brown Recycling team have been fantastic, drawing on their extensive experience to suggest ways in which we can improve waste management on site to aid effective recycling. The introduction of recycling bins on the festival site will hopefully make it easier for our visitors to do their bit and help with pre-sorting recycling.

Their sponsorship of the reusable pint glasses, meanwhile, is a stroke of genius – visitors can buy a reusable plastic pint or half glass from the first bar they get a drink from then re-use it throughout the day, taking it home as a souvenir at the end of the event if they wish. This should certainly see a huge reduction in the number of plastic glasses being discarded throughout the event

The service, communication and care received from Brown’s has been excellent from the moment we partnered up with them for our waste management around 3 years back. Dave has always been helpful in any queries or needs that we have sent his way. Nice company to deal with.

We have a fantastic partnership with Brown Recycling, this has been ongoing for a number of years, we are quite a unique business therefore we need our waste partner to understand our needs and with Brown Recycling we feel that that is exactly what we have.
Only a phone call or email away and they take the time to understand and provide us with the best solution, we are very grateful that we have this in place and would recommend them highly to anyone.

Brown Recycling has been a key partner to CHC for 20+ years and have most recently supported us with a major ongoing secure destruction project.

CHC fully entrust Brown Recycling as a fully compliant, preferred service provider and look forward to our continued partnership.

As the Founder of Bathroom Mountain (Tile Mountain’s sister company) I am pleased to share our positive experience with Brown Recycling. Their expert waste management solutions have significantly contributed to our growth and sustainability goals. By implementing a structured recycling system similar to the one at our sister company, Tile Mountain, Brown Recycling has helped us achieve a remarkable milestone of zero percent waste to landfill.

Their provision of efficient systems, including balers and compactors, has streamlined our operations and enhanced our environmental efforts. Additionally, the rebate system introduced by Brown Recycling has not only been economically beneficial but also reinforces our commitment to sustainability.

We are proud to partner with Brown Recycling and are grateful for their support in helping us maintain our dedication to eco-friendly practices.

“We’ve been partnering with Brown Recycling for several years now, and it’s been an absolute pleasure. At Parogon we strive to have very high standards, which means we have very high expectations with our supply partners, what sets Browns apart is their unwavering commitment to honesty and flexibility, qualities that are invaluable in our industry where seasonal trade fluctuations are the norm.

One of the key reasons we’ve continued to choose Brown Recycling is their alignment with our company’s recycling plan. They not only meet but exceed our expectations by sending nearly zero waste to landfill, which is a huge win for our sustainability efforts. Moreover, working with Brown feels like having a true partner. The owners and account managers are not only professional but also incredibly responsive. No matter the issue or question, they always come back to us quickly with helpful solutions, making our waste disposal process seamless and efficient.

Brown Recycling is hands down the best waste management company we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Their integrity, flexibility, and commitment to sustainability make them an invaluable asset to our business. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.”

Brown Recycling’s tailored waste management solution has significantly improved our construction waste services, exceeding our expectations. With their proactive approach and sustainable practices, they’ve helped us achieve a 99.15% waste recovery rate, demonstrating reliability and dedication. I highly recommend Brown Recycling for any organisation seeking efficient and environmentally conscious waste management solutions.

When Alan Gibson and I first met to discuss how we could improve our waste management all those years ago, little did we think that we’d still be working together over 20 years on. The support, advice and service delivery from Brown Recycling has always been first-class, and on the rare occasions where there’s been an issue, they have sorted things out without any hassle. It’s been great working with you Alan and team!

“I would strongly recommend Brown Recycling to any business that’s aiming to improve their waste management performance, reduce volumes, divert waste away from landfill and become more responsible when it comes to waste. The team there are very supportive and responsive, and always full of ideas and solutions. And thanks to their online portal there is full transparency of data and information available on demand.”

We are hugely grateful to Brown Recycling for their help on DIY SOS: The Big Build in Stoke. Dave and the team went above and beyond to clear the site and then bring in other suppliers who also supported this great cause. Thanks to the generosity of countless suppliers and volunteers, Stoke now has a community centre that will support its residents for many years to come.

Brown Recycling took over the management of all our waste earlier this year and we have formed an excellent relationship. They are keen on all recycling so we have a much greener approach to the handling our waste which can vary from surplus food from the restaurants or bottles and cans from the bars to stable waste. We appreciate their flexibility and reliability which is so important for a busy operation like ours when no two weeks are the same.

Our business relationship started over 12 months ago and has since gone from strength to strength. In general, the scrap metal industry hasn’t received the best press in the past but dealing with Brown Recycling has brought a refreshing level of honesty and integrity to the market. Dovetail these qualities with a first class customer response and logistics service and Brown Recycling are well positioned to support the ongoing growth of our business.

At Tiger, we realise the importance of protecting the environment. We are therefore embracing environmental change, which has been achieved with help and support from Brown Recycling. This change has also helped the company to achieve value for money.

Right from the outset you put my mind at ease that Brown Recycling were capable of handling the contract, throughout the process the communication and pre-planning was spot on.

During the event and for the post clean you and your team performed brilliantly. Due to the nature of the event industry suppliers have to be flexible and work in some challenging conditions, in particular weather-wise, this was definitely the case this year in V Festival. The drivers were always friendly and willing to go the extra mile for us which made our job a lot easier.

From start to finish it has been a pleasure working with Brown and I hope to continue the relationship going into the future. I would have no hesitation in recommending your company to any prospective client.
