Recycled aggregates available for purchase

At our recycling centre in Oxford, we produce a wide variety of high-quality recycled aggregates for use in construction projects across the UK. These include:

 

  • Capped layer material 6F2: A well-draining crushed stone mixture used as a sub-base for roads, driveways and pathways.
  • Screened road planings: Highly resistant top-layer material, particularly useful for areas with heavy traffic or difficult weather.
  • Type 1 recycled concrete: Versatile and environmentally friendly materials for driveways, roads and footpaths.
  • Crushed tarmac: Reclaimed from road surfacing and civil engineering projects, this material is typically used as a sub-base for car parks and private roads.

We preserve the environment and your budget

At Hazell & Jefferies, we’re committed to recycling materials and minimising waste. By offering recycled aggregates, we keep waste from going into landfills and help limit unnecessary production of new materials. This contributes to a greener, healthier environment and keeps costs low for you – all without sacrificing quality.

We operate a recycling centre from an Environment Agency-registered waste management centre near Benson, Oxfordshire. And when we collect the skips from our skip hire service, we take them to our recycling centre. Our team sorts this waste to recover as many reusable materials as possible.

After we recycle these materials, we use the aggregates in our own works and sell them at low rates to developers and contractors. That way, everybody wins.

Top reasons to use recycled aggregates in your project

Since recycled aggregates are made from existing sources, they’re much more affordable than newly manufactured materials. Along with this lower price point, recycled aggregates are just as structurally secure and safe as natural aggregates. That means you can use them to complete construction, landscaping and certain types of home renovation projects to a very high standard.

Recycling Centre FAQs

Can non-trade customers buy recycled aggregates from you?

We supply recycled aggregates to both trade and non-trade customers. If you are completing a home project or managing works without a contractor, you can order directly from our team and arrange delivery or collection.

Can I collect materials directly from your recycling centre?

Yes. You can collect aggregates from our Oxfordshire recycling centre. Our team will load your vehicle safely, and we recommend calling ahead so we can prepare your order and confirm availability.

What vehicle access is required for aggregate deliveries?

Our tipper vehicles need clear access and enough room to unload safely. Most residential driveways, farm tracks and construction sites are suitable. If you are unsure whether your location can accommodate delivery, we can advise before scheduling a trip.

Can you provide small loads for individual or limited-size projects?

We can supply smaller loads for customers who only need a modest quantity of material. This is ideal for topping up driveways, repairing access routes or completing small domestic or landscaping jobs.

Can tradespeople arrange for you to collect materials from their sites?

If your site is large enough for our tipper vehicles to access safely, we can arrange to collect suitable materials directly from you. This is often helpful for contractors who generate significant volumes of concrete, tarmac or hardcore during their works. Speak to us about your location and the type of material, and we will confirm whether collection is possible.

What types of waste cannot be accepted?

We cannot accept hazardous materials such as asbestos, chemically contaminated soil or any waste classed as restricted under environmental regulations. If you are unsure about a particular material, our team can confirm suitability before collection or delivery.

What happens to waste once it arrives at your recycling centre?

Our team sorts, processes and recovers as much reusable material as possible. Items such as concrete, road planings and tarmac are crushed and screened to create new aggregates, while non-recyclable items are managed in line with environmental regulations.

Do you offer ongoing waste management or supply arrangements for trades?

Yes. We can arrange regular tipping, scheduled waste handling and consistent aggregate supply for contractors working across Oxfordshire, Berkshire and the surrounding areas. Long-term arrangements help keep workflows predictable and cost-efficient.
