Cardiff produces more sweeping work than anywhere else in Wales, largely because building rarely stops. City centre office and apartment schemes around Central Square and Central Quay, continued development in Cardiff Bay and large housing sites on the north-west edge of the city such as Plasdwr all put muck-away lorries onto public roads that have to be kept clean.
Away from construction, the Port of Cardiff, the industrial land at Wentloog and Rumney and the business parks beside the M4 create steady yard and estate road sweeping. The city is served by the M4 between junctions 29 and 33, the A48 Eastern Avenue, the A470 northwards and the A4232 link road around the western and southern side.
Coverage in and around Cardiff
A Cardiff enquiry normally takes in the whole city, including Cardiff Bay, Splott, Canton, Llandaff, Whitchurch, Llanishen, Pontprennau, St Mellons and Culverhouse Cross, along with neighbouring Penarth and Dinas Powys. Because several operators work the capital, short-notice bookings are more realistic here than in rural Wales, although any date still depends on what is available.
