The skip hire and scrap metal recycler’s 17 team members will join the Binn Group’s 140-strong workforce.
Fiona Labrum, who has managed the Shore Road depot for 22 years, will relocate to Inverness to take on the role of site manager.
The group said it plans to make significant investment into its new base in the Highlands – including in people, fleet and operational infrastructure.
R Finnie Skip Hire was founded in 1976 as a motorcycle sales company and pivoted to skip hire, MOTs and scrap metal services in 1990.
The company has been led by Robert Finne and Carrie MacKay, who will both stay on during the initial transition period.
Guy MacGregor, business development director at Binn Group, said: “We’re thrilled to welcome R Finnie Skip Hire into the Binn Group.
“Robert and Carrie have built a fantastic business, known for its quality service and loyal team – values that align closely with our own. We’re especially grateful that they’ll stay on during the transition to ensure continued support for customers.
“This acquisition is a strategic milestone for Binn Group as we expand our geographical reach into the Highlands. We’re excited to invest in the Inverness site and work alongside our new colleagues to build on R Finnie Skip Hire’s legacy.”
Finne added: “Having built up R Finnie Skip Hire over the past 35 years, we’re proud to be handing it over to Binn Group – a company that shares our values and commitment to customer service.
“We’re confident that our staff will be well supported as they join the Binn family, and we’re looking forward to working closely with the team during this exciting transition.”
