London-based waste management company Powerday has acquired two waste transfer stations in Wimbledon and Heathrow for undisclosed fees.
Powerday’s new site in Wimbledon, which is licensed to process 75,000 tonnes per year
The 26,500 square foot Wimbledon waste transfer station, which is already open, is licensed to process 75,000 tonnes per year and was acquired from Maguire Skips.
Powerday says the 88,292 square foot Heathrow site is licenced to process 150,000 tonnes per year and will soon open its doors.
Edward Crossan, vice-chairman of Powerday, said: “We continue to live in truly unprecedented times, but we watch with cautious optimism as the country gradually reopens for business.
“Powerday remains totally committed to supporting our customers as we all get used to operating in the new world, and we are delighted to have acquired these new sites in Wimbledon and Heathrow that will enable us to continue to deliver a cost effective and efficient service to even more businesses in the south east.”
Powerday operates five sites across London with materials recycling facilities (MRF) in Willesden Junction and Enfield and transfer stations in Brixton, Heathrow and Wimbledon.
Lockdown
Powerday also announced all its other sites have reopened following the partial relaxation of the lockdown.

The company says it is again accepting waste at its transfer stations in Brixton and Wimbledon, as well as its MRFs in Willesden, which has continued to operate throughout the coronavirus pandemic, and Enfield which also reopened this week.
It says its skip hire, hazardous waste and fly-tipping clearance businesses will return to normal throughout June, operating under new health and safety guidelines to protect staff and customers against infection.
London
Powerday receives a combination of construction and municipal wastes, as well as commercial wastes, through its own collections and tipping clients.
It has a permit to deal with two million tonnes a year of predominantly construction and demolition waste and says it handles a high proportion of the sector’s waste in London.
Waste will be bulked in Brixton, Wimbledon and Heathrow before being transported to the company’s materials MRFs in Willesden Junction for processing.
