Control aggregate removal and muck away operations more effectively

Muck away refers to the removal of excess soil, construction waste, aggregate removal, and other debris from a site, typically a construction or excavation site. The material is typically loaded into trucks and taken to a landfill or recycling centre for disposal. Muck away is an important step in the construction process to clear the site and make it ready for further work. 

Site preparation 

Clearing excess soil and debris from a site helps prepare it for construction, making it level and ready for foundation work. This involves removing trees, bushes, and any other obstacles from the site to make it ready for construction work. 

Environmental protection 

Muck away helps to minimise the impact of construction on the environment. By removing waste material from the site, it helps to prevent soil erosion, pollution, and other negative effects.  

Health and safety 

Removing waste from a construction site helps to minimise the potential health and safety hazards that could arise from the accumulation of waste material, such as the risk of fire, the spread of disease, or exposure to toxic substances. 

Compliance with regulations 

Muck away is often required by local and national regulations to ensure that construction sites are managed properly, and that waste is disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner. 

How can you manage your muck away lorry fleet? 

Most companies need some form of software to manage their fleet. Keeping track of your muck away lorries will allow you to better deploy vehicles, and manage your drivers’ wellbeing. LiveFarmer offers a robust structure of fleet management.  

Load tracking 

LiveFarmer can help track the loads that each muck away lorry carries, including the weight, type of material, and the origin and destination of each load. This helps to ensure that the lorries are not overloaded, and that waste is being transported to the correct location. 

Real-time tracking 

With the ability to link the tracking systems in the muck away lorry to LiveFarmer, you get real-time visibility into the location and status of each muck away lorry. This helps to manage the flow of waste from the site and ensure that each lorry is utilised effectively. 

Compliance monitoring 

Keep your operation compliant automatically. When anything is documented, LiveFarmer links the data to the specific job. Keep complaint with regulations and permits by tracking the waste material and its disposal, as well as providing records of the materials transported.  

Driver checks 

Before each journey, you can have the drivers fill out a competency form when checking out a vehicle. This is a mandatory form that you can seamlessly add to your driver’s workflow, without the possibility of missed paper documentation.
