Allstone Speedy Skips

What Allstone Speedy Skips does

Allstone Speedy Skips is a privately held, family-run waste management and skip hire company headquartered in Gloucester, United Kingdom, operating since 1983 under the legal name Allstone Sands Gravels Aggregates Trading Co. Ltd. The company serves domestic householders, tradespeople, and commercial and infrastructure customers primarily in Gloucestershire, with selected enterprise projects delivered nationally via its National Waste Solutions partner network. Service lines span the full waste value chain: skip hire (2-yard to 40-yard, including standard, drop-end, enclosed, and roll-on roll-off containers), muck away and grab hire (12-16 tonne grab lorries), commercial waste tipping at a licensed Gloucester Waste Transfer Facility, scheduled 1,100L wheelie bin hire, road sweeper hire, specialist waste disposal (asbestos, POPs, contaminated soils), and soil treatment solutions producing recycled aggregates.

Underlying technology centres on an in-house Materials Recovery Facility commissioned in 2019 and an Aggregate Wash Plant commissioned in 2023, which together deliver a claimed recycling rate of up to 98% and divert over 150,000 tonnes of waste from landfill annually, avoiding approximately 23,500 tonnes of CO2 in 2025. The wash plant achieves up to 85% material recovery from soil treatment inputs. All collection vehicles carry on-board weighing systems to enforce load limits, and skips are monitored by CCTV (Glevum Security site surveillance, Vue Group cloud-backed fleet CCTV with 60-day retention). The company is regulated under Environment Agency Waste Management Licences, a Goods Vehicle Operator's Licence, and an Environmental Agency Waste Carriers Licence.

Revenue is generated through a mix of transactional and recurring streams: one-time skip hire fees with 14-day standard hire and 30-day credit terms for authorised accounts; third-party commercial tipping charged by tonnage; sale of separated recyclates and processed aggregates; muck away and grab hire charged by load weight; subscription-style wheelie bin collections; and per-tonne soil treatment processing fees. Sub-brands Allstone Aggregates (aggregates, landscaping materials, muck away) and Monster Mix Concrete (domestic and commercial concrete, pumping, concrete blocks) extend the offer into adjacent building materials. GTM is predominantly direct, combining a self-serve online booking wizard, phone and email sales, dedicated account management for enterprise projects, and the National Waste Solutions partner channel for nationwide delivery. Customers range from individual homeowners and local trades to principal contractors on multi-million-pound projects including Kier Construction (Gloucester Forum £107M), Taylor Wimpey (1,300-home Whittle Gardens), ISD Solutions (M&S Belfast), CK Rail Solutions (Gloucester Station upgrades), Barnwood Construction, and Situ Construction.
