Winter always approaches faster than we anticipate so it's important to always be prepared for the harsh winters that affects our towns and cities across the country causing hazardous conditions and major disruptions. With this in mind, we strongly recommend you take precautions, and get in touch today to book one of our many services.
​
Gritting
A planned gritting maintenance programme is offered to all customers. Our team of staff monitor the weather by continually checking with the Met office. When temperatures are due to drop to 3 degrees Celsius or below, we can carry out an uninterrupted gritting service, which avoids costly delays. Our fleet of vehicles are on call 24 hours a day, to enable fast clearance of ice and snow from car parks and entry roads.
Rock Salt and Supplies
Rock salt acts on ice and snow to lower their freezing point. This means that at zero or sub-zero temperatures when water is normally frozen in the form of ice and snow, the application of salt will melt it. This action is essential to keep roads and highways open during the winter months. Rock salt will ensure personal safety on walways, paths and car parks.
​
We can supply white or brown rock salt in approximately 25kg bags, or loose using own fleet of vehicles.

Salt Spreaders and Snow Shovels
Our salt spreaders are ideal for pedestrian areas and smaller pathways and car parks. Suitable for long term use, they are delivered already assembled. They have a folding handle, deep lug wheels and are made out of heavy duty polyethylene. The spreaders hold approximately 1 bag of rock salt.
​
You could also keep one of our snow shovels in stock to help keep areas free of snow and ice during the winter. We have a large range of tough snow shovels, spades and scoops in stock and are available in all different sizes and materials.

"Clean it UK kindly spent Sunday and Monday Clearing the snow from the entire Follingsby Site and also gritting all the internal roads and yard. It is money well spent in a view of the possibility of trailers not being able to access the yard and collect the despatches, let alone the serious issue of staff parking and general safety."
