Our Ejector Trailer Services

Our ejector trailer services are a useful addition for more demanding applications and abrasive materials. We take pride in offering fully comprehensive ejector trailer services for the local authority and commercial sector and are aimed specifically at household waste and recycling centres (HWRC sites), waste transfer stations and recycling MRFs. They have a capacity of 110 cubic yards and a payload of up to 23 tonnes. All our vehicles and trailers are fitted with weigh loaders to ensure our clients can maximise the loads and reduce the risk of overloading the vehicle. All ejector trailers are fitted with automatic sheeting systems that are operated at ground level to maximise safety. These trailers can be loaded using loading shovels or 360 excavators.

What can you dispose of?

Once loaded, the materials are transported to destinations such as recycling MRFs, bio MRFs, waste-to-energy facilities, landfill sites, wood processing sites, compost facilities, and refuse-derived fuel (RDF) processing facilities. All our ejector trailers are waste spec, which means they have the strength and durability to handle an array of materials including:

  • Municipal waste
  • Bulky waste
  • Green waste
  • Waste wood
  • Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF)
  • Solid Recoverable Fuel (SRF)
  • Dry mixed recycling
  • Paper and cardboard
  • Mattresses and other large items
  • And more
