At Kelly Drums, our story is rooted in family, built on trust, and driven by a mission to create a more sustainable future. For over 40 years, we’ve proudly served as a family-owned and operated industrial container company, earning the confidence of businesses across the country with our reliable service, environmental responsibility, and unwavering values.
A Legacy of Leadership and Loyalty
Founded on doing things the right way for customers, employees, and the environment, Patrick Kelly Drums has grown from a small operation into a respected name in industrial container recycling, refurbishment, and distribution.
Known today by many simply as Kelly Drums, we’ve stayed true to our roots while continuously innovating to meet the changing needs of modern industry.
Our growth has been steady and intentional. As we expand our facilities, invest in state-of-the-art equipment, and grow our skilled workforce, one thing remains constant: our dedication to building strong, lasting relationships. Many of our team members have been with us for decades. Many of our customers have, too.
Family-Owned. Employee-Focused.
At the heart of Kelly Drums is a deep respect for the people who make our work possible. We believe in creating a supportive, empowering environment where every team member feels valued. This culture of care drives our performance, shapes our service, and ensures that every drum or tote we deliver meets the highest standards of quality and safety.
We’ve built a business where employees take pride in their work and customers know they can count on us year after year.
Committed to Environmental Responsibility
Long before sustainability became a buzzword, Patrick Kelly Drums made it a priority. As an industrial container company, we understand the importance of reducing waste and keeping valuable materials in circulation. That’s why we invest heavily in recycling, reconditioning, and responsible destruction services for industrial drums, barrels, totes, and boxes.
All waste from our production and reconditioning processes is properly captured and managed to minimize environmental impact. Through our services, we help clients in industries like chemical manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, food production, and environmental services meet their own sustainability goals.
