Company Profile -
established 1973, online since 2003
|

Smiths of the Forest of Dean Ltd., began as
Ray. Smith and Son in the early 1970's.
Ray Smith started from our Milkwall depot and the business enjoyed organic
growth for the next two decades providing and delivering tanks and
drums across the country. Ray Smith and Son
and our sister business
Dean Drums, rapidly established a name for quality
service and first-rate products. The partnership continued to expand steadily for
throughout those twenty years. By the
mid 1990s the firm acquired another depot to add to its existing
operation and we now run the business from these two sites.
 The company has divided into three distinct divisions catering for local,
national and international customers -
New and Recycled Tanks and Drum Sales
throughout Europe - retail
and wholesale supplies to domestic and business users
New and Recycled Wooden Pallets - supplying a fast and
efficient service to local businesses Warehousing and
Haulage - providing responsive services for the needs of local and international
customers
In 1999 the partnership of Ray Smith and Son evolved into the limited company
Smiths of the Forest of Dean Ltd.
The firm is still an independently owned business - three Directors and Ray Smith as its
senior consultant.
We have developed into a small dynamic company providing
specialist service and cost-effective products across Europe.

Smiths of the Forest of Dean's customer base has increased year on year for the past five years and includes
county councils, country estates, builders, farmers, plumbers,
heating engineers, environmental and waste disposal companies, film units,
exhibition centres, cider makers, valeting businesses and so on - as well as
individual home owners and domestic users.
We have retained our original Milkwall premises and see customers returning to
us time and time again, which is very satisfying. If you want a single
one-off container or hundreds a week we will endeavour to provide you with a fast
and efficient service, whoever you are.
Ray Smith founded the company on the principle that every customer - big or
small is important to us and that remains as true today as it did
then.
