BDO advises CIRQLR on acquisition

BDO has announced that it has advised business recycling group CIRQLR on a number of acquisitions. CIRQLR has brought together an integrated network of regional recycling operators covering the East of England from the South-Coast to the Humber. Chambers Waste Management, which covers Surrey, became the latest leading regional recycling firm to join CIRQLR in a deal which was completed on 31 March 2025. The Chambers acquisition further strengthens CIRQLR’s coverage in the South-East and Home Counties with Southern regional customers also able to turn to CIRQLR’s sister recycling brands including Wilrose and Cox Skips/The Recycling Partnership. Jeff Gardner, director at BDO, said: “Growing a business from inception to one of the country’s leading recycling groups in just two years is no mean feat and is testament to the ambitious nature of CIRQLR and their management team. “These acquisitions represent an exciting time for the sector, providing much needed capital investment and skills development to the industry. We look forward to continuing to work with CIRQLR to help it continue to realise its growth ambitions and deliver a more circular economy for UK businesses.” David Palmer-Jones, CEO of CIRQLR, added: “We have rapidly built CIRQLR Group into a significant player in the commercial recycling market and our growth journey has only just begun. A generational step change in how we manage business waste is underway, supported by the implementation of positive regulatory changes over the next five years.” CIRQLR now has coverage from the Humber down across East of England and East Anglia via Ellgia, north and central London via KP Waste and Eco Waste. All subsidiaries benefit from the national reach of CIRQLR’s hazardous waste subsidiary, Castle Environmental.
