Customer Reviews

Loved by our customers

Vivien Berry

“I contacted Wheeldons when I was really struggling to find help to remove cardboard after recently moving, the customer service was excellent I was treated as though they’d known me for years, their politeness respect understanding and genuine concern was beyond reproach and they kept to their word and never let me down.”

Tracey Drain

“As a global manufacturer of domestic appliances, the company that I work for uses Wheeldon Brothers for waste management and recycling of not just electrical waste and packaging, but office waste too.”
