Soil and rubble recycling in Shropshire

As keen gardeners we would never give away our valuable soil and rubble because we can always find a way of reusing it around the garden for making a soak-away or just general landscaping.  However for some people who just want to get rid of it then its useful to know that small amounts of soil and rubble be recycled at each of the five main Household Recycling Centres (HRC's) in Shropshire.

What types of soil and rubble are accepted?

They only accept small quantities of:

• soil
• roofing tiles
• ceramic tiles
• cement slabs
• concrete
• rocks and stones
• bricks
• sand and gravel
• hardcore
• tarmac
• rubble
• building aggregates

If you have huge quantities or material from your business activities, you must hire a commercial skip service to deal with this waste.

What happens to the soil and rubble?

Soil and rubble is transported to Tudor Griffiths Ltd in Ellesmere, Shropshire and recycled. Rubble and hardcore is crushed and used to create road aggregates and once cleaned up, reconditioned soil is used to restore closed landfill sites.
