Is Tray Washing a dirty subject?

Tray Washing at PPS


At PPS it’s not – it’s what we do every day!
Tray Washing at PPS

We wash thousands of supermarket style bale arm trays 24 hours per day, seven days per week.

We do this because our customers don’t want the hassle of washing their own trays, that’s our problem and a problem solved for our customers, leaving them to get on with their core business.

We take tray washing seriously and we have exacting hygiene and quality systems.

These systems have enabled us to be certificated to BRC standard, which is recognised widely across the food supply chain.

So, if you have a tray washing problem don’t delay – contact PPS and let it be our problem.

Crate Hire from PPS

Renting crates for your office move or refurbishment couldn’t be simpler with PPS Crate Hire.  Our experienced customer service team will help you throughout the process from advising you on how many crates to hire to arranging collections to fit in with your business needs.

Here are some steps to follow when arranging crate hire:

1.    Which Crates? – PPS offers a large range of crates to our customers conducting office moves and refurbishments.  We provide computer crates which are specifically designed to hold a computer and all the related equipment such as keyboards.  We have metre long crates which are ideal for moving books and the contents of filing cabinets.  We also have standard crates which are designed as one crate per person for all their desk top belongings.

2.    How Many Crates? – The general rule is one standard crate per person and one computer crate per PC.  It is also important to consider the contents of filing cabinets and folders when calculating how many crates you need.  Our customer service team will be happy to advise you on crate quantities and extra crates can always be hired if required.

3.    Do you need any packaging? – Will you want labels to identify the contents of each crate, bubble wrap to protect the contents?  Security seals are available to lock crates to protect high value goods or sensitive files. 

4.    How are you going to transport the crates? – When the crates are full they can be heavy.  Skates or sack barrows can be hired for safer and easier handling.

5.    How long do you need them for? – You will have a plan of how long your move will take and it is a good idea to hire the crates for a few extra days either side of the move to allow staff to pack and unpack their crates.  Don’t worry if your move takes a bit longer than expected rental periods can always be extended.

It can seem daunting having to make all these decisions which is why our customer service team is always available to discuss your individual move.  We understand that all moves are different so we tailor our service to suit you. 

Once you have ordered your crates all have to do is sit back and wait for them to arrive.

Meet the team - Andy Moss

Andy Moss - PPS Plant Manager

Andy Moss - PPS Plant Manager
Name:
Andy Moss

When did you join PPS?
September 2007

What is your role at PPS?
Plant Manager. I am responsible for all the washing and equipment movements on site, that involves arranging the transport for our collections/delivery’s. I also plan all of the PPS Removals delivery’s and collections.

What was your first ever job?
I did the usual paper rounds and washing up in a pub kitchen but my first job where I was properly employed was at McDonalds.

How do you take your tea?
This depends what mood I’m in and who is making it. If I make it I will usually have it strong and milky, if somebody else is making it I tend to have a couple of sugars to mask the flavour.

What is your favourite food?
I think the most appropriate answer is Junk Food. However if pushed I don’t think I could survive much longer than a week without Bacon.

What are your hobbies?
Mountain Biking and Skiing. I like being outside and in the mountains, unfortunately we don’t have many of them in the Midlands.
