Quarries, aggregate depots, asphalt plants and concrete plants send loaded lorries onto public roads all day. Keeping those roads clean is usually a condition of operating and always a matter of good relations with neighbours.
Typical sweeping work
- The public highway either side of the site entrance
- Surfaced access roads and weighbridge areas
- Plant yards, loading areas and car parks
- Sweeping after spillages on the lorry route
- Additional sweeping in wet or dusty conditions
What to plan for
Quarry material is heavy and abrasive, and hoppers fill fast. Tell us whether the sweeper can tip on site and refill from your water supply, as that largely decides how much road is swept per shift. Say how far along the public road the sweeping needs to extend.
Regular and multi-site work
Most sites need sweeping on a schedule. See nationwide contract sweeping.
Other services for the same site
Tipper haulage, aggregate delivery and waste services for site buildings and workshops are available through Waste Cloud. See supporting services.
