Background<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Day Aggregates is a UK-based construction company<\/a>\u00a0that specializes in the supply of primary and recycled aggregates to the construction, civil engineering, and landscaping industries. Founded in 1947, the company has grown into one of the largest independent suppliers of aggregates in the UK, with a reputation for sustainability and innovation. Day Aggregates operates a network of quarries, depots, and recycling centres, ensuring they can supply a wide range of materials, including crushed stone, sand, gravel, and recycled aggregates, to projects of all sizes.<\/p>\n

The company is known for its strong commitment to environmental responsibility, actively promoting the use of recycled materials in construction to reduce waste and conserve natural resources. Day Aggregates operates a diverse fleet of vehicles tailored to the construction and recycling industries, including tipper trucks, articulated lorries (HGVs), grab lorries, rigid trucks, and walking floor trailers. These vehicles transport bulk materials like sand, gravel, and recycled aggregates from quarries and depots to construction sites. They also use specialist recycling vehicles to collect and transport recyclable materials. In line with their commitment to sustainability, Day Aggregates is incorporating low-emission and Euro 6-compliant vehicles into their fleet and exploring alternative fuel options to reduce environmental impact.<\/p>\n

Day Aggregates has been using\u00a0FleetWave<\/a>\u00a0to manage their fleet for two decades, since 2004. The company operates 225 vehicles across 24 depots, with a transport office staffed by 8 people responsible for managing the servicing and maintenance of these vehicles.<\/p>\n
