In October 2025, Kenburn Waste Management was acquired by Chas Storer Ltd (CS Recycling), bringing together two established Hertfordshire-based businesses with a combined heritage of 128 years in the waste and recycling industry.
For our customers, the most important thing to know is this: nothing changes. Kenburn continues to operate as the same trusted brand you have always worked with, delivering the same products, services and support you rely on.
Two businesses, one shared commitment
Kenburn has been a leading UK supplier of waste compactors and balers since 1987. Over the past 39 years, we have installed more than 4,000 machines and built long-standing relationships with businesses of all sizes, from independent operators to household names.
CS Recycling brings 89 years of experience in commercial recycling services across London, Hertfordshire and the South East, specialising in cardboard, paper and polythene collection and processing.
Both companies share a commitment to helping businesses manage their waste more efficiently, reduce costs and improve their environmental credentials. Bringing the two together creates a stronger platform for growth and allows us to continue investing in the equipment, engineering expertise and customer service that our clients depend on.
What this means for you
If you are an existing Kenburn customer, the short answer is: business as usual.
- Your contracts, service agreements and warranties remain fully in place
- The same team of engineers continues to provide nationwide maintenance and repair support
- You will still deal with the same people you know and trust
- Our full product range of new and refurbished balers, compactors and consumables remains available
We are proud of the relationships we have built over the years, and maintaining the quality and reliability you expect from Kenburn remains our top priority.
Looking ahead
This acquisition positions both Kenburn and CS Recycling for a strong future. Together, we can offer a broader range of waste management solutions while continuing to operate independently under our respective brands.
