What recycled aggregates are for

Most sub-base and fill jobs don’t need quarried stone.

Yards & hardstandings

Recycled Type 1 as the sub-base for yards, parking areas and container pads.

Tracks & gateways

Road planings or recycled Type 1 on farm tracks, lanes and gateways.

Capping & piling mats

6F5 crushed concrete (85mm down) as a capping layer and working platform on soft ground.

Filling & raising levels

Smalls (70mm down hardcore) for filling holes, old ponds and building up ground.

Budget drive bases

Recycled Type 1 under a drive or shed base where nobody will ever see it.

Bedding & backfill

Recycled sharp sand for bedding block paving and backfilling trenches.

How much do I need?

Recycled materials compact to roughly 1.8–2.0 tonnes per cubic metre.

Length × width × depth (m) × density = tonnes. Pick the material in the calculator and it uses the right figure.

Example: a 10m × 6m yard at 200mm of recycled Type 1 is 12m³. At about 1.9 t/m³ that’s roughly 23 tonnes — one full 20-tonne tipper plus a bit, or a 30-tonne artic if you can take one.

Honest about recycled

Recycled aggregate is crushed from concrete, brick, tile and similar hard material. It does the job underneath, but it isn’t uniform: colour, grading and the brick-to-concrete mix vary from load to load. If a specification asks for primary stone, buy MOT Type 1. If you want the cheapest sound sub-base, this is it.

Big yard or track to build up?

Recycled is where the savings are on big areas. Send us the size and postcode and we’ll price the loads within the hour.

Load sizes — from a trailer-load to a 30-tonne artic

Three ways to get it. Pick the one that fits the job.

Collect from our yard

Any amount, loose or in 1-tonne bulk bags (+£5 a bag). We load you with the machine at Whitworth Road, St Leonards-on-Sea, TN37 7PZ. Recycled Type 1 £28/t, 6F5 £15/t, smalls £12/t collected.

2–9 tonnes on our own lorries

Hastings, St Leonards, Bexhill, Battle, Rye, Tenterden and Eastbourne. Delivery is per trip: £65 Hastings & Bexhill, £85 Rye & Tenterden, £100 Eastbourne. Minimum delivery 2 tonnes. Tipped loose.

10, 15, 20 & 30 tonne bulk loads

32-tonne 8-wheel tipper (up to 20t) or 44-tonne artic (30t), anywhere in Sussex, Kent, Surrey, London, Essex, Hertfordshire and up towards Cambridge. Instant online price around Hastings & Bexhill; everywhere else a firm delivered price within the hour in working hours.

Worth knowing: loads under 20 tonnes on a tipper carry a part-load charge (£14/t), so a full 20 tonnes is often better value than 12 or 15 — ask us to price both. We need 48 hours’ notice for delivery. Pay online by card or PayPal, or by bank transfer; trade account customers can be invoiced monthly. Before you book, check the lorry sizes & site access — a tipper needs far more height to tip than it does to drive in.

Buying for the trade?

Because we crush it ourselves, recycled is where trade customers make real savings on big areas. Groundworkers and civils firms get repeat 20 and 30-tonne loads, a monthly invoice and a straight answer on what’s in the heap.

  • Landscapers, groundworkers, builders & civils
  • Monthly invoicing on a trade account
  • Repeat bulk loads to the same site
  • Firm delivered quote within the hour

Questions we get asked

Is recycled Type 1 as good as MOT Type 1?
For most sub-base jobs — yards, tracks, drive bases, hardstandings — it does the same job at a much lower price. It is less uniform than quarried Type 1, so where a specification asks for primary stone, use MOT Type 1.
What is 6F5?
6F5 is a crushed concrete capping material, 85mm down. It’s used as a capping layer, working platform or piling mat on soft ground. It’s £15/t collected or £23.50/t delivered on a 20-tonne load.
What will be in recycled aggregate?
Mostly crushed concrete, brick and tile — that’s normal. We crush it on our own yard, and it varies from load to load. If you need something consistent, or it will be on show, choose a primary material instead.
Do road planings set hard?
Road planings are old tarmac milled off roads. Rolled and compacted, they tend to bind together — more so in warm weather — which makes them popular for tracks and farm gateways. They’re £30/t collected, with full loads delivered by the load.
What are smalls?
Smalls are recycled hardcore, 70mm down, used as bulk fill — old ponds, holes, raising ground levels. They’re £12/t collected from our yard.
Can I get IBAA or recycled 10, 20 or 40mm stone?
Sometimes — ring us on 01424 222288 for availability and a price.
