Resource Recovery and Waste Minimisation are the main objectives for Dial A Tip. Since moving to our modern Resource Recovery Facility in 1997, Dial A Tip has increased the amount of waste recycled or diverted from landfill to approximately 85% and currently lead by example. Dial A Tip Customers are encouraged to separate their waste by offering discounts of up to 80 % (depending of the type of Waste).

Recycling Process

The material that makes up the most volume is concrete, bricks, tiles and masonry rubble. None of this material is wasted; it is put through a sorting process before being returned to the market place as usable and usually cheaper product, (compared to virgin quarried material).

• Skip Bins are emptied into the sorting area
• Large heavy material is removed (tree stumps, large concrete slabs)
• Bulky light waste if any is removed
• The waste is then put through a trommel which separates dirt and fine rubble.
• The remainder of waste then travels along a picking belt where any contamination is removed by our staff.
• Finally the masonry rubble is sent away for further processing.
