Japanese Knotweed

Soils contaminated with Japanese Knotweed are required to be disposed of in specialist disposal facilities in order to comply with current waste disposal regulations. Here at Heidelberg Materials Agecroft Manchester we have access to these facilities and are licensed to carry this type of waste in our modern tipper trucks.

Hazardous soils

We can advise you on pre disposal treatments which can be carried out to reduce certain types of contamination in soils which can prove to be very cost effective compared to disposal directly to hazardous landfill.

Waste documentation

Our experienced staff can handle the whole process on behalf of our customers, including the provision of all required waste documentation to ensure that your waste soils are disposed of in full compliance with current waste regulations.
