About Us
A-1 Sandrock Inc was founded in 1979, by Gene Petty as a mining
company in Greensboro, North Carolina. A-1 mined a local material
known as Sandrock and sold it to contractors as a base material
during construction projects. As years moved on A-1 had to
reclaim its quarry pits and stabilize steep high walls around the
property, A-1 starting accepting stumps and land clearing debris in
the early 1980’s to refill mining pits and that started A-1’s
landfill operations.
In 1987, A-1 received a Demolition landfill permit from the state of North Carolina permit (# 41-87-1) and operated through the early 1990’s offing contractors and residents throughout Guilford County with convenient location to dispose of construction and demolition debris, pick up aggregate materials and also buy materials such as topsoil and mulch.
In 2001, A-1 Sandrock Inc sited Guilford County’s first solid waste MSW transfer station to ease waste troubles trough out the City of Greensboro and High Point, in 2003 the transfer station was sold to and operated by Republic Waste.
In 2006 A-1 opened a new Sandrock mine and Construction and
Demolition landfill (permit # 41-17) in G
reensboro
North Carolina. The new landfill that A-1 operates utilizes a
mechanized recycling line, and provides LEED reports for
construction sites through its sister company Absolute Recycling
Contractors LLC (ARC).
You can now find A-1 operating the old Viewmont Sandrock Facility as well, at the site we provide Sandrock, topsoil, and mulch.
In the future A-1 has plans in with the city of Durham to open a
site to provide LEED recycling and transfer station for Orange and
Durham counties. The companies day to day
operations is now ran by Gene’s Grandson Ronnie Petty and looks
forward many more years of continued growth.
