Who we are
Where it all started
Bulman’s Removals and Clearance originated as a garden maintenance company where many customers wanted us to remove their green waste.
Though we were happy to do this, it was taking us away from our core business, and we had to rely on third-party removal companies to help us do this. Some of these companies were good, but since many were very small, they came and went, and reliability became an issue, along with concerns that some may not be disposing of things properly.
At this time, Mark had returned from university and, with Claire, decided to fill this gap and offer professional and dependable removal and clearance services.
Where we are now
Since then, we have gone from strength to strength, and councils, housing associations, government agencies, businesses and residential customers across the region now employ our services.
With a customer-centric approach, delivering peace of mind, being environmentally focused and leveraging technology, we have created an exceptional team, providing quality services that meet our customers’ needs and set us apart from the many.
Meet our team
Claire
Claire heads up customer services, HR and recycling. Being a people person she is always helping customers understand their options, how they can self estimate their waste or how we can support their business operations long term. She also oversees our customer bookings and is often making sure our team is OK and has a cup of tea where needed.
As a keen gardener, she is often found outside admiring the shrubs and flowers around our office in her spare time.
Mark
Mark oversees the day-to-day running of our business and reports to the directorate. With a hands-on approach and an operational mind, he often doubles up as a crew leader where needed. He has an HND in Business Management, is a qualified project and portfolio manager and is also an Associate Member of the Chartered Institute of Waste Management (CIWM).
He tends to get involved in ‘everything’, talks a lot and is a stickler for quality and timekeeping.
Brett
Brett works as a member of our mobile crews. He has lots of experience in planning, logistics, customer service and sales. He’s even spent some time hanging around with the Formula 1 crew.
Never slow coming forward, with a huge tank of energy and lots to say, you can always rely on him to get the job done. He even has his own dance shuffle!
Will
Will works with us in our mobile crews. He has a wealth of experience in facilities management, ground works and countryside stewardship. He is also a dab hand on the tools where needed. Because of this experience he is also responsible for the management and upkeep of our tools and equipment.
With an interest in geology, history, sci-fi and probably astrology too, we don’t know where he finds the time.
Adelaide
Adelaide works in our customer services team. She is one of the first people customers speak to and is bubbly and full of life. Eager to please with a matter of fact approach to life, she is pure pleasure to have around.
Adelaide likes to spend her time with friends, family and her car. It seems more with her car than anything else. She ‘really’ loves her car.
Jim
Jim works in our mobile crews as crew assist. He is dependable, hardworking and digs deep when the going gets tough. Jim is a real go getter and, when he sets his mind to something, he normally gets it done.
A cool cat, with a bit of swagger to boot, he is a pleasure to have on our team, even if he does seem to have a natural affliction to caps.
Max
Max works with us part time either helping out with the mobile crews or back at depot with other tasks as needed. He does this between the site work contracts he carries out across the County.
Max is enjoying his time with us, however, in time is keen to join the Army and we wish him the best of luck.
