Some of SFS customers have the last word…
Andrew Wilkins, Head of Waste Services, Aylesbury Vale District Council:
“We, like many authorities, are undergoing a process of change and we need to be able to change our fleet in line with any future changes to our waste collection service. We believe in open and honest discussion and SFS provide that. The contract is not only extremely competitive with very favourable lease arrangements, but also gives us the ability to change vehicles before the end of term of the contract.”
