Willshee’s Acquires Stanton Recycling to Expand Services Offerings & Regional Coverage

We are excited to announce the acquisition of Stanton Recycling Limited – an established waste and recycling service provider operating across Nottingham and Derbyshire.

The acquisition marks a strategic expansion for Willshee’s throughout Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, enhancing both our regional presence and service capabilities.

Founded in 2004, Stanton Recycling Limited has provided extensive municipal waste, mixed recycling and organic waste services across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. The acquisition of the company will increase our employee numbers to in excess of 160. The existing Stanton Recycling employees will continue in their roles under Willshee’s leadership.

Stanton Recycling’s Ilkeston site becomes our fifth site – joining our sites in Burton-On-Trent and Swadlincote. This expansion extends our comprehensive waste management and recycling services to businesses and communities across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, adding organic waste collection to our existing offerings, which include Total Waste Management, production of solid recovered and refuse derived fuels, skip hire, process and recycling of wood, along with the recycling of cardboard, glass, hazardous waste, food and metal.

Acquiring Stanton Recycling enables us to expand our reach across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire along with bringing new organic waste capabilities to our existing clients. Looking ahead, we’re aiming to further strengthen our business, create more local jobs and drive positive environmental change across the region.
