Business Profile
The firm offers a wide range of sands and gravels for all types of construction, from basic sands to beautiful golden Dorset gravel that's ideal for driveways where you want to create an eye-catching first impression.
One of the keys to the business is that it deals with every type of customer. You can have deliveries as small as 1.5 tonnes, with anything up to 6 tonnes coming on a compact lorry that can access most driveways without headaches. At the other end of the scale, the firm offers particularly competitive pricing for large-scale orders of up to 20 tonnes.
The Evason family, who run Dorrington Sand & Gravel, have four generations of history in the business, dating back to a coal business in 1874. Current director Charles Evason has been at the firm since 1972 and has worked his way up from starting as a yard sweeper and driver, meaning he is perfectly placed to advice customers on everything from the best product for their needs to simple but vital issues such as arranging delivery access.
As well as quality products, the company also offers specialist services. For example, you can hire roll on-roll off skips which are designed to be easy to use whether you are loading from a wheel barrow or a mini excavator. You can also take advantage of the company's Environment Agency-approved landfill site, which has its own wide access road straight off the A49. (Note that the company can only take inert landfill such as stones, concrete, bricks and tiles.) Another facility is the company's weighbridge, ideal for checking that your commercial haulage vehicle, trailer or caravan meets the relevant regulations.
The company is also committed to recycling wherever possible. As well as recycling any appropriate materials brought to its landfill facility, the firm sells reclaimed soil, hardcore and pipe bedding, suitable for a wide range of domestic and commercial construction. Where relevant, it can supply certification to prove recycled products are compatible with building regulations.
