Whether you’re a builder, landscaper or plumber there’s no getting away from the fact that during your everyday work you’ll create various amounts of waste. Unfortunately as the waste begins to build up, so does the impact it has on the environment. Fortunately, our team here at Smith Construction can help you minimise the environmental impact your waste products have by providing you with our skip waste recycling Milton Keynes service.

In 2002 our team took the steps to help those within the construction industry reduce their business’ carbon foot by opening our fully licensed skip waste recycling facility, which is fully equipped with the latest screening and crushing machinery.

At Smith Construction we’re committed to disposing of waste in a safe and environmentally friendly manner as often as possible. It doesn’t matter whether it’s landscaping waste, aggregate waste or other waste, we’ll transport it to our recycling facility where it’ll be separated, recycled and re-used.

One of the most common forms of waste we recycle here at Smith Construction is that of aggregate waste from construction jobs. From virgin aggregate waste through secondary waste caused as the result of a swimming pool Berkshire construction, we’ll be able to recycle and re-use the products before selling it back to the construction industry to be used in new builds and repair work.

Our dedicated and professional team are constantly trying to improve our recycling qualities by helping to minimise the impact construction waste has on the environment, whilst also making more recycled aggregates available to be re-used within the construction trade, either as reclaimed bricks or as part of another product.

Next time you’re planning on hiring a skip to dispose of a large quantity of construction waste, consider the impact the products you’re disposing of will have on the environment and then reduce that by contacting our team here at Smith Construction who can provide construction waste recycling Milton Keynes.

With the ongoing concerns surrounding environmental issues such as climate change and global warming, it’s vital that those of us in the construction trade do our bit by recycling. This isn’t only the most responsible method of waste disposal but it allows for the re-use of construction material and aggregates. As a company that is actively working with the building industry, here at Smith Construction we have opened a station for recycling Milton Keynes to process builder’s waste from our own and other companies.

At Smith Construction we have a fully licensed recycling station Milton Keynes which we opened in 2002. This is used for the sorting and processing of the construction trade’s waste to produce secondary aggregates that can be re-used in the construction industry, both by ourselves and other companies that we supply to.

All the waste from skips, demolitions and other construction work which is sent to our recycling station is screened before being separated and processed. This includes concrete being crushed ready to be re-used in our own and other companies’ construction projects, soil being recycled ready to be used again as topsoil and bricks being cleaned before being released back into the building trade.

At Smith Construction, we’ve made a conscious decision to acquire the latest crushing and screening equipment for our recycling station Milton Keynes. By doing this, we have been able to maximise our productivity, turning waste into re-usable building materials, while decreasing the impact on the environment.

Concrete however is not one of these materials.

Utilising innovative crushing and screening technology, we transform useless chunks of discarded concrete into reasonably priced useable aggregate ideally suited for countless practical applications.

Furthermore, of the 275 million tonnes of aggregate used in the UK per year, approximately 70 million tonnes are recycled materials. This demonstrates the visible trend in the industry toward sustainable construction processes and environmental preservation.

One of the most important industries to need recycling is the construction industry.  There are firms who pride themselves on having specifically targeted waste treatment centres and recycling stations in the Milton Keynes and Newport Pagnell areas.  This requires a licensed site and the main aims are for sorting out builders’ skip waste and for the processing of other inert waste.  This in turn allows for the production of secondary aggregates which can then be re used in the construction industry.

By using these specialists, your recycling will be carried out in the best possible way.  Top quality equipment means that the very latest in screening and crushing equipment is used and therefore productivity will be maximised.  These processes mean that almost all waste can be transferred into re-usable building materials.
