A family business for over 30 years.
Towens has supported its customers across the south west for over 30 years, helping them to reduce their impact on the environment by recycling as much as possible, avoiding landfill and providing personal levels of customer service. It is a growing business focused on being both smart and sustainable, investing in its people, plant and equipment to maintain its position in this highly regulated industry.
There are a few things that make Towens the company that it is today
Our people
Lots of companies say that they are all about their people but in our case it is 100% true. The business is full of really nice people doing their best for our customers, for themselves and for each other every day.
Long standing relationships
One thing that you will notice about Towens is that a lot of our customers have been using our services for many years. They are attracted by the quality of the services that we offer but particularly by the people that they deal with on a daily basis.
Directly employed
We employ our drivers directly ourselves. We believe that as they are the face of our business that our customers see every day they should be part of the team like everyone else.
Fleet
We have a fleet on modern, well-maintained Euro 6 vehicles. We have our own fleet manager and a Fleet Services business that maintains our fleet of vehicles and vehicles for other people as well.
Environmental management
Waste management and haulage is a highly regulated industry with a substantial quantity of legal and regulatory requirements to comply with. We have the relevant processes and procedures in place to ensure that we safeguard our business and our customers interests.
Local
We believe that it is important to be local, understanding local needs and having local people working in the business. That is why we have developed by expanding into areas next to where we already operate so we can provide local responsive services from people that you know.
Innovative
Standing still is never an option in business and Towens is continually adapting and improving how it operates investing in new plant and equipment and developing new processes. This allows us to operate in an industry that is constantly evolving to both regulation and customer needs.
