Winton Haulage Ltd is committed to the Environment. Recycling is top of our agenda - think green! Recycling involves processing used materials (waste) into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials being sent to landfill.
We operate an in house recycling facility based at our Bedfordshire depot. When we attend on site what we take away is not simply put into the ground & never seen again, in fact a large percentage of the material is recycled & is reused again. We pre-sort, re-use and recycle waste materials wherever possible. At our depot we carry out the following procedures:
- Green waste is taken to a facility that re-uses all of the collected "waste" for composting.
- Broken lumps of Concrete are sorted, metals are sent to scrap recycling for the steel industry & the clean material is then crushed into a good quality crushed concrete. The end product is a recycled aggregate material.
- General waste i.e.: builders rubbish is sorted through, only a small percentage may go to landfill such as plastic that cannot be recycled, however wood, concrete & hardcore all get recycled.
- Quality soil is screened and sold as Screened Topsoil.
We are licensed waste carriers with the Environment Agency Registration number ACE/108968.
On occasions there can be arising of hazardous or non- hazardous contaminated waste, i.e.: material that is of no use to anyone. It has to be treated according to recommended guidelines set out by the environment agency. Quite often the material has to be treated prior to being deposited in the ground. It can be a costly excesses to dispose of such materials, however with assistance from our contacts at relevant landfill sites we will classify your waste and select the most appropriate, best value treatment method for your business. Saving you money & time.
