About us

C O'Donovan & Sons are a family run business who take great pride in everything we do. We bought our first site in Leeds 11 from John Milner & Sons in 2005. John Milner & Sons had been recycling and reconditioning drums since 1947. We are currently still located at this site. In 2022 we bought a second site in Leeds 12, this site is predominantly used as a disposal site. We purchased a third site in December 2025, also in Leeds 11, this site is used to store our new and reconditioned packaging ready for distribution. We also bought a fourth site in Wakefield 17 in December 2025. This site will be used to launder IBCs and drums as well as reconditioning plastic drums.
Since obtaining our first site, we have updated and extended the site. We have concreted the whole area, built new wash bays, installed a new drum line and continue to make improvements.
We are able to supply, purchase and dispose of all types of plastic containers as well as steel/plastic drums, IBCs. We supply a wide range of drum sizes from 30L to 220L plastic/steel drums. The steel drums can be supplied with clip tops and bung tops. We supply 500L, 600L, 1000L and 1200L IBCs in various colour plastics.
We have a wide range of supplies that allow us to match IBCs perfectly with our customers' requirements. Our IBCs have a huge range of valves, lids, cages and bottle types. We supply a full range of reconditioned IBCs, from Grade 1 (almost indistinguishable from new) through to Grade 2 (perfect for waste).
We offer a disposal service of all HDPE and PP with our shredder and granulator. We are able to process all of our own scrap plastic IBC/drums in-house. We can offer our customers the full in-house service.
We are an environmentally friendly family run business, with that personal touch, we take great pride in a good, quick efficient service to all customers no matter how big or small the job is. With all deliveries/collections, we send the correct paperwork to ensure full traceability and peace of mind. We also collect/delivery nationwide.
