BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
FREEHOLD Manchester City Centre Waste Transfer Station,
Recycling and Skip Hire Business with Freehold Site
Ref.CT022
Location Manchester City Centre
Asking Price £ 1,750,000
This is a unique opportunity to acquire one of only two waste transfer stations based in central Manchester. There is also the option to acquire the other city centre waste transfer station which is next door to this business and is circa 1.2 acres and ( please refer to Ref CT021 on the Turner Butler website).
The company operates their own registered waste transfer station and owns one of only two licensed tipping premises in the city centre. They specialise in skip hire, waste disposal and recycling, tailored to customer requirements whilst meeting with enviromental legislation. The central location enables the company to offer a speedy, reliable and competitive service not only to major contractors in the city centre but also to domestic customers supplying a varied range of skips and containers ranging from 4 cubic yards to 40 cubic yard roll on roll off containers.
The company have invested heavily in the latest technology. Waste removed is processed at their licensed transfer station which has a 38 tonne private weighbridge. The site is efficient in recycling circa 80% of the waste they receive with the aid of a trommel, picking stations and a finger screen. There is both indoor and outdoor facilities within this modern site all aimed at reducing the amount of waste sent to landfill.
The company has a wide inventory of machinery, equipment and vehicles with over 200 skips in total 60 of which are roll on roll off.
Expansion Potential
This is a fantastic location in the heart of Manchester. By itself this is a wonderful opportunity for new owners to purchase a well run modern, profitable business in a growth sector of the market. If you then add on the extra circa 1.2 acre site next door (see Ref CT021) this then gives you a circa 2.4 acre site and the only licensed transfer station in the city centre. With the business being modern and well equipped there would be very little need for any further large investment and this would afford new owners the opportunity to expand their operation at a pace and become one of the largest operators in the Manchester area.
