Our listed companies have a large fleet of vehicles to choose from that can undertake any type or size of site cleaning project that you have planned. 

From our featured companies on this webpage you will find that their sweepers are some of the most advanced, well maintained, and reliable machines in the whole of North UK and are widely used in a comprehensive range of industries.

The service is used by companies involved with highway cleansing, construction, facilities management, flood clean-up, maintenance, road surfacing and tarmac laying, and many more industries. 

Fast, and reliable service 

Based throughout most areas in Yorkshire, the road sweeper companies listed are chosen for sweeper hire time and time again, and most offer a fast response time being ready to be deployed to your chosen location. Some of the companies listed here also offer an emergency call-out service, with 24/7 coverage to a lot of locations in Yorkshire being possible. 

This is a valuable service should your business be involved with site spillages or highway accidents where a fast response is needed from time-to-time. 

Highway cleaning can also be needed on an emergency response time in areas where flooding has occurred too. The locations of Doncaster (in particular the village of Fishlake), Boroughbridge, and York, all suffer from time-to-time with heavy flooding where the local river banks are unfortunately breached. 

The range of available services provided by the road sweeping companies featured here all carry out a wide cross range of services. 

A few to mention are: 

• Road Cleaning
• Street Cleaning
• Car Park Cleaning
• Gully Cleaning (surface water drains)
• Construction Site Cleaning
• Building Site Sweeps
• High Pressure Jetting (most of the trucks have onboard cold water high pressure jet washers)
• Garage Forecourt Cleaning 
• Flood Water Removal (from drives, roads, car parks)
• Concrete Plant Sweeps
• Tarmac Plant Sweeps

Sweeper Hire in Yorkshire

What areas are covered in this UK region?

In particular, all locations in East, South, and West Yorkshire are covered when it comes to sweeper hire. This does not only apply to locations such as the larger West Yorkshire cities of Bradford, Castleford, Halifax, and Leeds, but other smaller locations such as Batley, Boroughbridge, and Harrogate, Knottingley and Pontefract too. 

The East Yorks coastline is also catered for with one or two companies covering that specific area. So if you need this service in Bridlington, Hornsea, Scarborough, or up at Whitby, you can find a supplier near me in this areas if needed. 

Further downwards in Yorkshire the service is freely available in the larger locations in South Yorkshire as well, including places such as Doncaster, Rotherham, and the large commercial and heavy populated city of Sheffield. 

This service is also very much in-demand with companies and in particular new house building companies that need sweeper hire in Barnsley. 

Obtain the required street cleaning service at a cost effective price 

If you are wondering what it costs to obtain this service you should find that the road sweeper hire rates are cost effective in relation to the work needed and the time that the actual cleaning company spends on site. 

The same applies for any "travel" costs that you are charged.

The costs that you are charged overall can vary from one supplier to another, and it's important from the start of your communication with any sweeping company to specify exactly what you want! 

Things to consider are: 

• How long do you estimate you will need a vehicle on-site for? 

If you don't know how long a period of time (measured in hours) you will need a vehicle for, ask the supplier for recommendations, or maybe ask them to carry out a site survey (on a no charge basis!).

• Is there a travel charge for the plant hire company to come to your site and return back to their depot? 

Note: Some companies charge a travel amount, whilst some don't. It's important to compare any quotes that you get on a like-for-like basis so the service in total can be compared.

Although it is reasonable to be expected to pay a travel charge this shouldn't be excessive or eat into the actual time that the driver of the truck spends sweeping your site. This can occur if you are quoted an "all-in" site visit rate where the one charge covers the sweeping time and the travel costs. 

• What is the position as regards dealing with the waste that the truck picks up? 

If the collected waste can be deposited in an area on your own site - you should not be charged for any "tipping" or "waste handling costs". 

If the waste (as is usually the case) needs removing away and getting rid of, expect to be charged a "tipping" or "disposal" charge. 

Unfortunately again, this cost can vary from one supplier to another so it's important to get that like-for-like comparison done - and before you book the service from the Yorkshire sweeper hire company. 

Waste Disposal Charging: Some sweeping companies charge for waste disposal on a weight basis, other charge on a partial load, half vehicle load, or full vehicle load basis. The disposal costs can vary also depending on what type of waste the sweeper truck is picking up from your site or premises. 

Usually the waste is made up of mud, gravel, soil, and general road debris, but it could also be contaminated if for example the vehicle booked has been cleaning a petrochemical site, a plastics manufacturing site, or a plaster / gypsum material site as a couple of examples to mention. 

Booking a reliable road sweeper hire company

When you are at the stage when you are ready to pick up the phone and call one or more sweeping companies (remember we mentioned about comparing details from them to ensure you get exactly what you want, and at a cost effective rate) it's often a good suggestion to have a note pad to-hand to make some notes. 

We recommend telephoning them rather emailing them so you can get a good idea of how they treat you as a new customer, and to get a feel if they are a company that can deliver what they say they will, and meet all your specific requirements.  

A good company should be able to answer all of your questions without rushing you, asking you specific questions about what you need, want, and when, be totally transparent about their road sweeper hire rates, be able to provide their company insurance details (by email within a short period of time), provide standard risk assessments and safe systems of work to you, and to supply you with a written / emailed price quote stating everything you have asked for. 

A few things you can ask them are: 

• Can you cover this particular job (explain what you need) and in the area / location needed? 

• Can you provide road sweeper hire for this date? (advise them when)

• Can you be on site for the required time? (advise them what arrival, and maybe departure time you need)

• What would the cost be, including any travel charge, and the waste removal / tipping charges? 

• How can I pay for the truck visit? (account, debit card, credit card, invoice, cash?

• Guaranteed time on site, will you provide the full time booked? (this could be 1 hour, 2 hour, 4 or 6 hours etc)

• Waste disposal - what is the charge for removal and disposal of the collected sweeper waste? 

• Waste disposal confirmation - will i get an official waste disposal ticket / tipping certificate (waste transfer note) so I know the waste has gone to an authorised Yorkshire waste handling facility? 

• Will I receive a proof of service if I am not available on site to sign a delivery or service ticket? 

Our Recommendations:

Only use a company for sweeper hire in Yorkshire if you are completely satisfied with their answers to your initial questions. 

Be really specific in your request about the required time period for the truck driver to spend on site. In this industry it unfortunately is very common for the truck driver to turn up (often late) and only carry out a minimal amount of sweeping before leaving to go to their next scheduled job. 

Specify to the rental company when you make your booking, that if the service is not as agreed in advance, if the time on site is short, or the driver turned up late - that you will not be paying the job rate! 

If you had to pay for the job in advance, ensure that you complain about the service, and back this up with an email to the manager or owner that is responsible for the area / sweeper hire job in Yorkshire. 

Only use companies that can provide you with copies of their insurance, and risk assessments if needed, in advance of the job taking place.

Ensure that you receive a copy of all waste transfer notes in connection with any waste that is removed from your site or property. It is your responsibility under UK regulations to ensure that you have this traceability. 

Monitor the truck and it's activities whilst it is on your premises. Check that the driver is not speeding, missing any areas that you need covering, or the performance of the sweeper vehicle is not up to scratch.
