Chilton Recycling Facility

Chilton is a busy materials recycling and bulking facility strategically located off the A34 near Didcot in Oxfordshire, accepting waste from both trade and commercial vehicles as well as Raymond Brown’s own skip and Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) vehicles. The site also benefits from an aggregate recycling area.

Raymond Brown Waste Solutions operate a skip and RoRo hire service out of the facility which serves a 15-mile radius including Didcot, Abingdon, Oxford, Wantage and Wallingford. Typical customers include major developers and construction contractors, local builders and commercial and industrial customers. This generates c25,000 tonnes of inert and active waste per annum.

Key customers for active tipping include (c6,500 tonnes per annum) builders, landscapers and waste companies.

The active waste received into Chilton is segregated by machine into the following waste streams:

• Wood
• Plasterboard
• Metal
• Commingled
• Landfill

The Chilton Recycling Facility benefits from a large open aggregate recycling area which enables an efficient inert tipping and processing operation. The soil and stones are screened utilising a screener to recover stone and produce a screened soil. Stone and concrete is processed into a 6f5 recycled aggregate for resale.
