About Us

Well this is us here, in the picture.  The Parsons Containers team.  We've come together since the year 2000 to turn out the best containers you can get.  We do our best in everything we do and we believe you can't do more than that.  We don't get too many complaints.

None of us are spring chickens (well, a couple are, best not offend them) so we’ve all done other stuff, for example the fella in the middle on top was once on holiday in America when Jimmy Page took ill and he had to cover for the great man in one of Zepplins stadium gigs. He still talks about it, he goes on and on about how he soloed Stairway to Heaven in front of 30,000. You’d think he’d have got over it by now.

The big guy, bottom right, he wrestled a grizzly bear while he was on a walking holiday across Alaska. He got hardly a scratch but the bear was limping for weeks.

The bloke in the middle bottom, he played for Croatia in the 2002 World Cup semi final, nearly scored in the last minute. Was going to sign for Liverpool but we made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.

The lady sort of crouching in the bottom row (her twin Sister is lying down, top left) was once a dancer with Pans People, a great mover. Never stops dancing around the office, she sometimes wears her sequins under her Parsons polo shirt. Her husband is a national drag racer as well, honestly some people just have it all.

The fella bottom left with the boots on, he’s a genuine Cossack from the Russian Steppes. He does the full dance with the kicks and everything. Gets in all the best clubs. He was working as a top DJ when we discovered him, couldn’t speak a word of English but got away with it.

The young lady with the sun glasses. Bit strange really. Joined us with her friend ‘The Pixie’ sitting in the top row. We think they’re new age travellers from the 80’s but we just don’t know. They just wandered in one day, sat down and started answering the ‘phones. Anyway they were so good we kept them on. As long as we feed them they’ll stay.

Bloke with the light pants on, just wandered in off the street when we were doing the picture, said his Tee matched so we let him stay (looked a bit dodgy to be honest).

So that’s our team though there are a couple of people that aren’t on there. For reasons best known to themselves they avoided the photo session. There’s the fella who volunteered to make the tea (that’s a first!). He was away hours. He’s a tricky little inside-right for the local pub team. Does better step overs than Ronaldo. Then there’s our Credit Controller, she missed the session too. Well you can understand that one I suppose.

Anyway, if you’re talking to us on the ‘phone just ask us to identify ourselves from the picture. We might just own up
