Free trial offer on recycled sand and aggregate



PMG Services is offering new construction industry customers the opportunity to try its top quality recycled washed sand and stones for free!

Using recycled sand and aggregate is more cost effective than quarried products AND helps meet sustainability targets.

The 0 -5mm washed sand and 5 – 25mm washed stone products are produced following an Environment Agency approved quality protocol at our own high technology re-cycling plant in Bristol. 

Under the process sand and stones are extracted from road sweeper and gully waste by the washing process within our recycling plant. The washed sand and stone products are ready for use within the construction industry at a low cost and more environmentally friendly alternative to virgin aggregate. 

The products are ideal for pipe bedding, paving and laying electrical cables and services on building sites or road construction projects.

PMG offers a delivery service throughout the areas of Bristol and surrounding counties. For more details contact the PMG office and choose option 4 for recycled aggregates.

PMG Services Fleet on the Move


We’ve opened a new 1.7 acre transport yard in St. Philips, Bristol.


Our Albert Road depot has become a bit congested since the installation of our waste recycling plant, so it made sense for us to separate the waste management and transport operations of the business.


So we’ve invested in a new yard just a few minutes down the road where all of our vehicles will now be based making everyone’s lives a lot easier. Over the past week we’ve moved our 35 sweepers, 6 tankers and other assorted vehicles to their new home which was the former Sita site in Cole Road. 


Commented operations manager Stuart Knight: “As our recycling business has grown the number of vehicle movements in and out of the Albert Road facility meant that we were experiencing heavy congestion. It made sense to invest in a second yard for our own growing fleet of vehicles to give both operations more space and I know our own drivers are pleased for the extra space”.
