Pilot franchise of BinMasters launched in Belfast
The first franchise operation that specialises in the repair and refurbishment of industrial waste containers was recently launched in Belfast.
Alan Lavery’s BinMasters operation is now recruiting four people to operate from the company’s two vehicles following Mr Lavery’s successful completion of a four-week training course with the Ferndown, Dorset based MDRC Group. The MDRC Group created the nationwide BinMasters franchise opportunity following 10-years success in the waste industry.
The Belfast operation will mirror MDRC’s own service which, it is claimed, has saved local authorities, health authorities and waste management companies hundred’s of thousands of pounds each year by repairing and refurbishing the growing number of industrial waste containers. (MB)
