As a leading waste and processing business on the Wirral, we’re often asked about Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) and whether we supply it. In short: yes, we do.
A2B Skip Hire is the Wirral’s trusted supplier of crushed hardcore and recycled aggregates, delivering high-quality, sustainable materials to contractors, companies, domestic customers and utility providers across Wirral and Cheshire.
What We Supply
We specialise in the recovery, screening and crushing of inert construction waste to produce reliable aggregate materials. Our recycled aggregates are processed using recovered limestone, building sand, asphalt, mortar and gravel producing consistent, durable particulate compounds ready for site use.
Our materials are screened and checked before being separated and crushed into aggregate perfect for:
- Binding course
- Concrete mix
- Tarmac mix
- Pipe bedding
- Turf or soil substrate
- Puddling clay
- Heat insulation
- And many more
Available loose by the tonne or in bulk bags, with delivery direct to site.
The Recycling Process
At A2B, we don’t see waste, we see raw materials. Broken bricks, old pipework, concrete slabs and construction debris are screened, separated and crushed at our Recycling Centre to create coarse, medium and fine-grade aggregates. By keeping these materials out of landfill, we return them straight back into the construction supply chain.
When people think of aggregate, they often picture huge quarries extracting limestone, or ballast made from gritsand. What they don’t often picture is the scale of recycled aggregate production across the UK. The UK produces over 70 million tonnes of recycled aggregate each year, and A2B Skip Hire is proud to play a part in that supply chain here in the Wirral.
Alongside aggregate production, we also handle metals, paper, wood, PVC and plastics from both domestic and commercial projects helping reduce environmental impact across the region.
Environmentally Responsible & Fully Licensed
We maintain full control over what comes in and what goes out of our facilities. A2B only deals with construction-based waste and does not accept food, liquid, clinical, chemical or hazardous waste. All material is checked and transported by us, and we are fully licensed as Environment Agency approved Waste Carriers.
We take sustainability seriously and we’re always happy to advise you on yours, whatever the project. Whether you are a sole trader looking to make a difference, or a multi-national construction company seeking to reduce your carbon footprint, A2B Skip Hire has you covered.
Why Choose Recycled Aggregates?
Recycled aggregates are becoming increasingly common and are vital in keeping construction budgets affordable. They can also strengthen your Environmental Management Plans by reducing reliance on finite quarried materials.
The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) states in paragraph 143 that construction plans should “take account of secondary and recycled minerals before considering extraction for primary minerals”, so there really isn’t a reason not to consider A2B for your supply.
