Winter grit bin and salt supplies

We grit, fill bins and supply salt for your car parks

Serving 10,500+ sites across the UK with over 200+ local active teams on hand

Grit bin service

Whilst Ground Control is the nation’s largest private gritting service provider, we also recognise that there are areas of your sites, and some locations, where having us deliver an overnight gritting service is not appropriate. In those situations, we provide our cost-effective grit bin filling service.

Highlights

Scheduled: Twice yearly visits in November and January. Perfect for smaller, single-office locations and hard-to-reach parts of your main sites.
On-demand: You notify us that your bin needs filling, and we attend the site within 48-72 hours during the normal winter season.
Check and fill service: Where you have subscribed to our gritting service, but have bins on site for your use, we will inspect the bin in conjunction with gritting. When required, we will then fill the bin and charge you for that, with the information visible on your visit report.

Salt supply service

Ground Control is one of the largest procurers of salt and winter gritting supplies. We procure both rock and marine salt, and in the situation that you wish to have your supply, you can benefit from our economies of scale. We buy directly from the producers and importers, reducing the number of people involved.

We can supply:

Pallets of 25kg bags of salt: Perfect for you to store and then distribute on-site, for example using a push spreader for areas you wish to grit yourself
One-tonne bags of salt: These are ideal if you have areas of your site, for example, a bonded supply area, where you deliver your service manually or with a small spreader. You can dispense directly from the bag, or lift the bag with a telehandler to offload the contents
Loose salt: In some instances, some of our customers wish to have loose salt delivered to them.

We can provide these materials routinely, or if you find yourself in an emergency, we can help at short notice.

The UK’s largest winter gritting provider

The benefits of trusting us to deliver all your winter maintenance service requirements.

Ground Control is the largest private gritting company in the UK and has been keeping businesses trading during the winter season, 24/7 for over 16 years.

Most of our salt will be delivered directly from the salt mine to our gritting teams to you. This reduces the number of people involved and eliminates the waste involved in producing, storing, and handling plastic bags.
Your facilities and site management teams will no longer have to store and manage salt, both in the winter, and any leftover at the end of the winter.
If you have multiple bins on site, our prices recognise the efficiency of filling more than one at a time.
By buying our salt in bulk, we save, you save.
When you first request a fill, we will set up your bins on our system, so that our teams know where they are, and upon receipt of payment/purchase order, will arrange the service.
