Hi Steve The firm was owned for a long time by a chap called Bob Merrick-then he sold out to Leigh Environmental,from then on i think it changed hands more than once before it came into the hands of SITA and as you say the Renaults went to A&J Bull who had also been bought out by SITA.Hughes & Salvidge-the demolition division were bought by the Jordan scrap metal group from Portsmouth and are still trading.At one time Hughes also owned a Mercedes truck dealership-HTH Commercials and J Mckinney who were Portsmouth based bodybuilders,mostly tipper bodies.
