We..........	We weigh	We recycle	We hire	......transport

T Shea & Sons diversified away from Civil Engineering in 1994, as a result of the Quarry Tax being introduced, and as the market for recycled aggregates began to take off.

A modest waste transfer site was established in Stourton, Leeds. With our modern fleet of tipper wagons and on-site plant, the business flourished, taking in demolition and construction waste from the Leeds area, which would previously have been sent to landfill, and, by crushing and screening, converting it into a reusable recycled aggregate.

In 1999, we moved to our present 5 1/2 acre licensed waste transfer station at Cross Green, where we continue to grow and develop our services to the local construction industry, supply tipping facilities and delivery or ex-works collection of our recycled, certified aggregates and as dug topsoil.

The natural progression has been to construct a large purpose built sorting bay (See the "Recycling Facility" page), obtain a modification to our license to accept inert and bio-degradable waste, and set up Cross Green Skips, to open our facilities to a much wider clientele, dealing with smaller quantities.

All materials brought to site are sorted and either transformed into reusable recycled products for the construction industry, through screening and crushing. or sorted into timber, card/paper, metals for recycling purposes.

Only a tiny percentage is sent for landfill.
