AS MOST OF YOU ARE AWARE EMS WASTE SERVICES IS A FAMILY RUN BUSINESS WITH FAMILY VALUES RUNNING THROUGH THE COMPANY FROM DIRECTOR TO OPERATOR. WE FOCUS HEAVILY ON SERVICE, IMAGE AND CUSTOMER COMMITMENT.
Part of the Stuart Group, EMS is a leading waste management company providing turn key solutions for business. We provide bespoke waste management solutions for our clients who trust us to provide the right solution first time every time.
BUT HOW DID IT ALL START?
1940’s – The EMS Waste Services story dates right back to the 1940s, when Mr Alf Stuart bought a second-hand Dodge and began to transport cattle.
By the time that brothers, Roy and Ross, were leaving school, the business had expanded enough to bring them on board and sales were thriving.
To meet the demands of the changing industry, they built a new repair workshop and cattle lairage which was large enough to accommodate an impressive 1,000 cattle.
1977 – They were ready to expand again – opening a new garage repair business, Stuart’s Commercials, which became the official Volvo Truck Dealer for Devon.
1980’s – Stuart’s was ready to move out of the cattle haulage business and began growing their fledgling storage business – boosted unexpectedly by the Miner’s Strike of 1984. By the end of the 80’s, they were growing a healthy farm enterprise. Roy also opened up an Inert Landfill Site at Hill Barton, spotting future growth opportunities in waste management.
2004 – Building on earlier success, the Stuarts’ garage business took over the Volvo Dealerships at Saltash and Redruth in Cornwall relocating the Saltash depot to a new workshop in Plymouth and investing in improvements at the Redruth site.
Meanwhile, the recycling side of the business was hotting up, and the Stuarts bought EMS Skip Hire and Waste Services; an already successful business.
2012 – 2019 – They brought Devon Contract Waste skips, AJS Skips, Cox Waste, ASAP Skip Hire, Bay Skips, County Skip Hire, Skip It and Dusty Bin Skip Hire into the fold, along with a new scrap site, strengthening the range of services offered to Devon customers.
SO WHAT NEXT?
Following on from the success of the new Waste Transfer Centre opened in 2018 we continue to provide our high standard of service our customers have come to expect.
We are also opening the new Scrap Shed at Exeter over the next couple of weeks. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for updates!

EMS are proud to announce the very recent delivery of twins. . . Well two brand new shiny lorries!
These add to our EMS Plymouth fleet which many know was formally Dusty Bin skip hire. It was definitely time for the other lorries to have a makeover, and so the rebranding of Dusty Bin to EMS started to take place.
Out with the old!
The makeover begins.
Transformation complete
Supplying Plymouth and its surrounding areas for over 30 years, Dusty Bin had extensive waste management experience. The acquisition by EMS Waste Services Ltd has proved to be a perfect opportunity for Plymouth businesses and residents to experience hassle free waste management.

One Year On: EMS Waste Transfer Site’s First Anniversary
Since the 1940s, the Stuart Group (EMS’s parent group), has delivered important services to domestic and commercial customers.
Last year, we opened a new waste transfer site in Exeter to service the local community and Devon. Twelve productive months have flown by and now our site is celebrating its first anniversary! We are proud to say that together we have achieved a great deal, making a strong, positive impact on the environment.
What we have achieved
Our waste transfer site has helped the community and the environment. Beyond increasing employment rates by taking on more staff in Exeter, our company is currently able to recycle 95% of waste recovered, domestic or industrial. This has an incredible impact on the environment, and we are proud to provide a big contribution to the rise of eco-friendly initiatives nationwide.
Fantastic as that figure may be, we at EMS are striving to increase our statistics to 100% recycled material. Installing a segregation line to separate materials such as plastic, glass, and metal helps us along the way, but there’s more work to be done.
Hiring skips from us results in more than an easy disposal system for your domestic or industrial waste. It ensures that your waste is handled properly and respectfully, which means it is recycled as far as possible to reduce landfill contents and harmful emissions from incorrectly disposing of waste (i.e. burning waste).
Our newest waste transfer site uses advanced procedures (including industrial magnets and size sorting schemes) and high-quality machinery to efficiently and effectively recycle materials given to us. This is topped off with feedback on our exceptional customer service from people in the community. After all, we believe that working together to improve our environment is the best way forward.
Moving forward
Here’s to many more years of servicing the community, properly disposing of waste, and working towards that 100% recycled goal. Thank you for your custom; without you, we could not strive to reach our goal and keep waste from heading to unnecessary landfills.
We look forward to working with you all, and many more customers, again.
Gender equality is unfortunately still a working progress in most, if not all, countries in the world. Since time immemorial, women have fought to have similar opportunities as men, especially in the workplace. There is lots of progress as far as the matter is involved and that is why it is important to count all wins no matter how small.
Here at EMS we believe that any industry should be open to any gender and our waste management company has made a move in the right direction by actively promoting women in the company.
The waste and recycling industry is predominantly dominated by men. There can sometimes be a lot of heavy lifting involved in the job as well as regular contact with waste materials and this is probably why most companies have preferred to hire men. Women have, however, proved themselves worthy of similar positions, and we pride ourselves on providing them with equal opportunities. EMS have recently employed three female truck drivers and will be promoting other female employees. Gender really shouldn’t play a part in this day and age.
Services provided by EMS
Waste management
EMS provides waste management of green waste, scrap metal and commercial waste, waste recycling and asbestos collection.
Once the waste is collected, it is sorted, recycled and safely disposed of. Active waste is separated from the stones, metals, wood, soil, glass and plastic.
Recycling
EMS recycles for both commercial and domestic customers. We use state of the art technology that ensures any useful waste material is recycled and recovered. Using high powered magnets to sort through the waste. Currently, we are able to recycle over 90% of all the domestic and commercial waste which is later converted to high-quality products.
Asbestos Removal
Asbestos is extremely hazardous and can cause cancer and breathing problems. Its fibres remain suspended in the air for a long time, and it is therefore important to get professionals, specially trained to handle and remove them.
EMS is doing a great job at being more inclusive and giving women in the industry opportunities to advance their careers. We hope that our company will be the first of many to absorb more women into the industry and change peoples mind set.
