Rubbish Registrations? - Not Likely!

« previous

“When I bought the Hummer from my friend Nicky Vaughan at Sparks in 2003, I immediately put the registration FW 2 on it. They are my dad’s initials that I have owned since 1995. In fact when it comes to buying cars I wouldn’t go anywhere else but Sparks,” he says. “When I bought the Bentley from them it already had CEX 1 on it. I just couldn’t resist the car or the number plate.”

Today Gowing and Pursey continues to grow and is now the largest privately owned waste disposal and recycling business in the area, with depots at Acton, Harlesden and Ruislip and with a fleet of 42 lorries and over 3000 containers all serving Greater London. They also have a small waste brokerage business in Shrewsbury called Countrywide Waste Management. Some of their many contracts have been at such well known sites as the London Eye, Wembley Stadium, Twickenham Rugby Ground, the Grosvenor Hotel. The list goes on.

His dad Frank now works for the company as a depot manager and mum Mary is fully involved at their head office in North London. It is very much a family business and as such Gowing and Pursey are extremely customer-focused, considering no job too large or small for their attention.

“Our aim nowadays is to reduce waste in line with the reduction of land-fill sites which is why recycling metal, soil, wood, plastics and inert waste such as hardcore etc, is now a major part of our business at all three depots. Charlie states. “Our company policy is now ‘to preserve the long-term environment for future generations’. “The term ‘where there’s muck there’s brass’ is true, but we have added ‘where there’s muck – recycle It’ ”.
