We will operate your demolition process from start to finish and can handle projects both big and small in a clean and safe environment. Whether you need the demolition of a house, corporate office blocks or industrial buildings, we are the company for you. At Shorts, we take health and safety very seriously. We are fully insured and accredited with a number of industry related schemes to our name. Our demolition team are trained to the highest of standards and receive continuous training to ensure they are performing to your expectations and in a safe, clean environment.

The asbestos identification survey is a destructive process and results in knocking holes in walls, taking up floorboards and pulling down ceilings. It is imperative that we check for any potential risks to workers or the public from asbestos. Once the asbestos inspection has taken place, we will provide you with a detailed quote for removing the asbestos, along with details of how long this will take and how it will affect the project. All of our asbestos removal team are fully qualified, trained and kept up to date with the latest legislation regarding the handling of asbestos.

We produce these by sorting and crushing all of the concrete and hardcore taken from our demolition jobs and re-using and recycling into top quality aggregate products. We can supply the aggregates in quantities from 1000 litre grab bags to 32 ton tipper lorry loads. Suitable for a variety of uses including filling potholes, creating driveways and hard-standing. Road Planings are produced from reclaimed tarmac from roads and driveways which are crushed to uniform size. Suitable for a variety of uses including bases for roads, hard standings and site compounds.

An affordable, reliable and local skip hire service for both small and large projects, servicing local residents, home owners, building contractors and larger property developers. Unfortunately, you can't put large amounts of soil or other heavy materials in this skip as it may be too heavy to lift and could cause damage to the surface it's on. If you have large amounts of soil or other dense, heavy materials to dispose of please consider a 6 yard skip or ask about our hook and grab lorry services.

Great customer care. I haven't used this business yet (still studying my needs) but I have already exchanged lots of messages with the hire controller (Mr. Ross McKenzie) who has been kind and quick to provide the requested information. Plus he knows that if I make business with them it will be a small business yet he is treating me like the biggest client ever.

Shorts donated to a local school a skip to help clear the garden and school waste. They gave a friendly, quick professional service. I would use them again when I need a skip. Thank you so much

Longridge uses Shorts for all of our recycling/waste needs and they are perfect. Professional, friendly and reliable.

Shame when you book a ladder for the day and they tell you at 3.40pm that their 'lorry' broke down!#wasteddayoff#stillwaiting.

Highly recommend shorts group in Milford. Great guys and really appreciate the help they gave Witley school.

Just had one of your delightful van drivers try and drive into the back of my car and intimidate me in binfield because I couldn't turn into my junction quick enough due to oncoming traffic. Complaint logged with the Bracknell branch. These people are representing your business?

I've used these guys for the last 20yrs and never had a problem. Would highly recommend

What happens to the waste you put in our skips? - All of the waste we collect from skips, grabs & tippers is taken to our waste transfer stations, sorted and then recycled. Waste materials which cannot be recycled, with the exception of hazardous or contaminated waste, are sent for reprocessing into.
