Road Sweepers Oxfordshire

Oxfordshire blends fast‑growing towns with sensitive heritage streets: Oxford’s colleges, Bicester’s logistics parks, Didcot’s energy and rail hubs, and expanding developments around Banbury, Witney, and Abingdon. Mud, silt, and site spoil can quickly turn into safety hazards, angry neighbours, and programme slippage. If you’re searching for Road Sweepers in Oxfordshire, Yorks Sweeper Hire Ltd delivers clean access, safer surfaces, and paperwork your clients will thank you for.

We support principal contractors, groundworkers, utilities, local authorities, FM teams, and professional advisers—yes, even accountants in Oxfordshire who coordinate maintenance and compliance across property portfolios.

What We Do

Construction & Civils Sweeping: From daily builder’s cleans to pre‑handover finals—removing aggregate, clay, and fine dust to keep routes safe.
Highway & Kerbline Sweeps: A34, A40, A420 interfaces, estate roads, and sales routes—reduce slip risk and keep inspectors on side.
Gully Sucking & Drain Clearance: Catch‑pit emptying, silt removal, and targeted drain desilting to stop ponding before it starts.
Jet Washing & Spot Treatments: For forecourts, loading bays, or delicate paving where a sweeper can’t reach.
Waste Handling & Documentation: Correct EWC codes, duty‑of‑care paperwork, and legal disposal—you get compliant, audit‑ready records.

Case Snapshot: Post‑Storm Recovery in Didcot

The challenge: Overnight rain washed spoil from a construction entrance onto a distributor road, creating a skid risk near a school run.Our response: 6 a.m. dispatch with a suction sweeper; focused kerbline passes, gullies checked and cleared; targeted jet wash on a zebra crossing. The result: Access restored before peak traffic; headteacher email thanked the site for “swift, tidy” action; council inspection passed without comment.
