A talented team from Cheshire-based container repair and refurbishment company UK Container Maintenance (UKCM), has triumphed at the prestigious 2021 Masters of Waste Golf Day, securing the much-coveted first place trophy.
Held at the High Golf Course at Moor Park in Rickmansworth, the national tournament, which celebrated its 10th anniversary, saw thirty teams of waste and recycling professionals from across the industry compete.
Scoring a highly-impressive 101 points, the winning team was one of two entered by UKCM and consisted of Mark Roberts, Neil Hylands, Steve Bumpass and Andrew Malone. It was a close competition, with the jubilant UKCM team securing the win and beating the second-place team by just one point.
Mark Roberts, Technical Director at UKCM and member of the wining team, commented, “After what has been a turbulent and difficult 18 months, it was great for members of the waste industry to come together for some friendly competition and to catch-up with some familiar faces – made even better by our win!”
Established in 1998, UKCM, the UK’s largest family owned container repair and refurbishment company is dedicated to the refurbishment of all types of waste and recycling containers. UKCM works across the country offering waste companies and local authorities’ mobile repairs, as well as factory-based services at its head office located in Winsford, Cheshire.
The process brings old, and often unwanted, waste containers back to life instead of them going to scrap. The business model – refurbishment over replacement – is simple and for a third of the price of replacing a container, UKCM can restore the unit to full working order.
