Cleaning Up After The Buses http://www.haz-waste.co.uk/blog.php Portswood Bus Depot has been a local public transport hub for around 130 years, but was too costly and large to keep running.

The site is making way for a new Sainsbury's Superstore and 140 new homes, however various areas of the land had been contaminated due to the years of vehicle maintenance being carried out on the site.

HWM Ltd were tasked with clearing away the contaminated materials from the site so that the construction programme could progress.

HWM Ltd cleared approximately 800m3 of contaminated soils which have now been successfully treated at our treatment and recycling facility in Otterbourne.
These materials have now been completely recycled into construction materials.

HWM Ltd saved Sainsbury's many thousands of pounds in Landfill tax as well as reduced the material movement's carbon footprint. The materials were taken for disposal locally rather than having to travel miles across or up the country.

Cleaning up Twickenham Academy http://www.haz-waste.co.uk/blog.php Hwm Ltd were contracted by the large Hampshire based construction company Leadbitter to remove some contaminated materials from the Twickenham Academy which were found following the demolition of some structures on site.

The materials were tested on site, removed and taken to the HWM Ltd cleaning and recycling facility in Otterbourne, where these materials are undergoing one of our unique cleaning proccesses so that 100% of the materials can be recycled.

The materials removed equated to approximately 550m3.
