What we handle

Hydrocarbon contamination

Soil affected by oil, diesel or fuel spills on forecourts, depots and industrial sites.

Heavy metals & chemicals

Made ground and brownfield soil with metals or chemical contamination.

Asbestos in soil

Soil containing asbestos fragments, classified and routed to a suitably permitted facility.

Mixed fill & made ground

Uncharacterised dug-out material that needs testing before it can be disposed of.

How it works

1. Classify the soil

A soil report and WAC testing identify the contaminant and the correct, permitted disposal route.

2. Remove by grab or tipper

We clear the material as muck-away — see grab lorry hire — on a continuous-load basis.

3. Dispose & bring clean fill back

Disposed of at a suitably permitted facility with a consignment note, and we can deliver clean aggregate back on the return trip.

Compliance: Contaminated soil must be classified before disposal — the analysis determines whether it is hazardous and which facility can accept it. We arrange the testing, the licensed haulage and the paperwork, so the load goes to the right place with a full audit trail.

Common questions

How is contaminated soil classified?

Through a soil report and WAC (Waste Acceptance Criteria) testing, which identify the contaminants and the permitted disposal route. We arrange this for you.

Can you remove the soil and bring clean fill back?

Yes. Because we also run grab and tipper lorries and supply aggregates, we can take the contaminated soil away and deliver clean fill on the same visit.

Will I get a consignment note?

Yes — hazardous contaminated soil moves under a consignment note confirming compliant disposal.

How much does contaminated soil disposal cost?

It depends on the contaminant, the volume and the disposal route the testing points to. Tell us the site and we will price it.
