The UK company F.D. Todd & Sons Limited operates three waste recovery plants in North Yorkshire - York, Thirsk and Knapton near Malton, where the company also operates a non-hazardous landfill. Richard Todd and his younger brother Peter are Managing Director and Project Director, respectively, and are the fourth generation of the family to run the business. Since its inception 107 years ago, when F.D. Todd (Richard and Peter’s Great-Grandfather) started a quarrying and road building company, the organisation has developed and evolved, building successfully on its long and illustrious history. Today, Todd is one of the largest independent waste treatment specialists in Yorkshire, running a large fleet of skip and trade waste trucks, roll-on-off vehicles, compactors, crushing, screening, shredding, washing and recycling plants. Collecting from a broad customer base throughout the area, F.D. Todd processes and recycles some 100 000 t of industrial, municipal, commercial and demolition waste every year, including the recovery of paper, card, plastic glass, timber, compostable waste and dirty plastics through an in house washing system. F.D. Todd & Sons still has a quarrying operation at Knapton which produces a range of aggregates and stone for road construction, building, concrete production and civil engineering.
