Soil recycling, remediation and amelioration services

SoilCyclers Pty Ltd was established in February 2009. We’re a family owned and operated business based in Brisbane but operate on construction, waste and mining sites across Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, the ACT and the Northern Territory. Our goal is to make onsite recycling ‘business as usual’ for our clients by providing innovative, cost-effective, and planet-saving solutions to reduce the use of virgin resources, avoid the risk of importing contamination to site and transform onsite waste into reusable materials. Each year, we can recycle almost half a million tons of soil, making us one of the largest soil recyclers in Queensland. Our team works with a range of clients from major construction companies to councils, state government, developers, mine sites and waste management businesses on jobs anywhere from 400m3 to 400,000m3+. SoilCyclers has mobile environmental permits allowing us to screen, ameliorate, remediate and compost temporarily on any site in Queensland. For interstate projects, we obtain permits as needed or utilise existing permits on our client’s sites. Our Doppstadt trommels are quiet enough to operate in metropolitan areas, creating less dust than most trucks. We use specialist misting cannons for sensitive sites and contaminated soil projects. We have full health, safety and environmental policies, work methods statements and fully maintained machinery suitable for large infrastructure projects and mining sites.

Amelioration of large quantities of varying quality ‘unsuitable’ site soils to create MRTS16, AS4419 and R178 compliant topsoil has been our core business for more than a decade. We have excellent quality control processes in place to create guaranteed project outcomes and generate cost savings for our clients through onsite recycling. We can create ameliorated topsoils that require less watering and have the long-term ‘fuel tank’ necessary to ensure the sustainability of rehabilitated landscapes. Geotechnical soil amendments. Using the same process we use for topsoil amelioration, SoilCyclers can adjust particle size distribution, plasticity index, emerson class, compactibility and more to turn unsuitable site materials into specification fill for dam wall upgrades, landfill liners and highways. Onsite composting. SoilCyclers has recently been issued with Queensland’s first-ever mobile and temporary ERA53 composting permit. This means we can work with you to turn green waste stripped from the clearing of the site into MRTS16 or AS4454 compliant soil conditioner for much less the cost of imported compost. PFAS soil remediation. We recently completed Australia’s first onsite remediation and reuse of PFAS contaminated soil. We can permanently immobilise PFAS in soil and reduce PFAS leachate levels to undetectable levels or to a level where it can be safely disposed of in landfill or reused onsite. Acid sulphate soil remediation. Accurately blend lime so acid sulphate soils are able to be reused onsite instead of disposed of. Asbestos contaminated soil remediation. Separate non-friable asbestos and other C&D waste from soil so it can be reused onsite. Waste reduction and landfill mining. Separate waste from soil to reduce the amount of waste being disposed of offsite or reduce the classification and cost of waste disposal. Sorting and processing of old landfills and illegal tipsites to reduce the cost of relocation and recover usable resources. Recycling mine tailings and overburden. Transforming mine waste, including tailings and overburden, into topsoil to help with challenging mine rehabilitation projects and to create new agricultural industries around mine sites.
