Salt and grit was in full supply in the first wave of the bad weather but where is it now?

All over the UK, councils are fighting a losing battle to refill council owned salt and grit bins.

With more unexpected freezing temperatures and snow forecasts, there is little reassurance from council grit and salt supplies. Grit and salt is not being replenished fast enough.

To ensure there is enough grit and salt for everyone, it is important to keep a steady supply, something that local government has failed to take into account in their planning and their supply lines. Did they learn from last year? No. The same mistakes relating to grit and salt are being made year after year not through lack of budget but through lack of planning.

Our advice (for what it’s worth):

  • A small amount of grit is effective in most circumstances.
  • Don’t rely on anyone to help you, get your own supply of grit or salt
  • Keep salt or grit in a grit bin
  • Don’t go mad, keep a modest amount of grit or salt only.
  • Keep your salt or grit safe and accessible and it should last you through the worst of the freeze.
