TAYLOR INTRODUCES FIVE YEAR WARRANTY ON WASTE AND RECYCLING CONTAINERS

Taylor, the market leader in waste & recycling containers, today became the first UK company to offer the option of a five-year warranty on its four-wheeled Taylor ContinentalTM hot dip galvanised steel waste & recycling containers. This industry-leading enhancement on the standard one year warranty for four-wheeled bins offers contractors and Local Authorities peace of mind in the performance and longevity of their container fleet.

Commenting on the introduction of its 5-year warranty option for UK Customers, Executive Director Dr David Gillett said, “Customers purchasing Taylor Continental containers are buying proven performance – they are not taking a risk. They know they are buying EN 840 certified, UK manufactured bins that will give them years and years of trouble free collection of waste & recyclables. Take Birmingham City Council who have 23,000 Taylor Continental containers; the average age of their fleet is 18 years and all the containers remain in good, safe working condition.”

The durability of the Taylor Continental container is proven through its 20 years of history in the global market place. There are estimated to be 1.2 million Taylor continental containers worldwide, all manufactured in the UK. When first introduced the Taylor Continental container won the DBA Design Effectiveness Award for its design know-how, beating the Land Rover Discovery and Dyson Vacuum Cleaner.
