Pioneering waste & environmental services in the South West
Leading the way in waste management and environmental services across the South West
At PMG, we’re more than just a waste management company — we’re a family-run success story that’s been growing, evolving since 1990.
From humble beginnings, we’ve built the largest fleet of road sweeper vehicles in the region, with a strong focus on sustainability, reliability, and customer-first service.

The beginning
Pat and Bernie McGuinness founded PMG as a mobile commercial vehicle repair company, marking the start of their entrepreneurial journey.
Establishing a base
We purchased a site in St Phillips, Bristol. The old site was cleared to build a three-bay workshop and office, giving the company a permanent and professional operational base.
The road sweeper revolution
We purchased its first road sweeper, marking its entry into the road sweeping sector. This decision led to consistent growth, with annual reinvestment in the fleet—now numbering around 60 vehicles.
Strategic expansion
Services expanded into Swindon and Oxfordshire, strengthening PMG’s presence in Wiltshire and the wider South West. This move demonstrated our readiness to grow and serve a broader customer base.
Zero to landfill begins
We launched its zero waste to landfill initiative, constructing a tipping and recycling facility at the Albert Road site. The facility enabled material recovery (e.g., sand, stone) from road and gully waste, reused in the construction industry.
Building a full waste management solution
Over the next 5–7 years, we invested heavily in sustainable practices, positioning the company as an industry leader in waste recovery and recycling.
Our very own bespoke facility
We made our largest step yet by constructing our very own bespoke facility to house all of PMG under one roof! We are so proud to call Church Lane our new home.
Our values
At the heart of everything we do are the values that guide our decisions, shape our culture, and define how we serve our customers and communities.
