A Smarter Waste Management Solution for PJ Skips
How PJ Skips and Opus revolutionised waste storage with a cutting-edge canopy system.
When PJ Skips, a leading commercial and domestic waste disposal business, faced challenges in storing plasterboard efficiently, they turned to McGregor Structures for a solution. The goal? To eliminate wasted resources, reduce manual labour, and ensure compliance with Environmental Agency regulations—all while enhancing workplace safety.
Enter Opus™, McGregor Structures’ latest innovation—a state-of-the-art canopy designed to integrate seamlessly with precast concrete block bays, offering a smarter way to contain and protect loose materials from the elements.
Collaborating closely with Operations Director Harriet Hamer, the McGregor team took charge of the installation, ensuring everything was completed on time, on brief, and on budget. The result? A streamlined waste management system that modernises production, reduces environmental impact, and sets a new standard for efficiency in the industry.
The site management has improved enormously with the Opus structure, it enables us to maximise the space on site. It’s provided us with the best possible ROI in the shortest period of time. We’re super happy with the service provided by McGregor Structures.

Main Features
Why PJ Skips chose Opus
Modular
Opus can be specified as a single or multi-bay structure. The modular design allows an existing building to be joined to an established structure with low effort and reduced investment - aggregate storage bays can be easily added as a site expands.
Safely Constructed
By offering specific product sizes, our teams install the same structures repeatedly with little variation, meaning our construction process is safe and predictable, and the ongoing maintenance of every structure can be effectively carried out.
Dry Environment
Opus forms a protective environment with features that control moisture. A gable vent with integrated water management maintains airflow. A tensioned side skirt forms a waterproof barrier, and where multi-bay structures connect, a deep-section steel gutter manages rainwater to on-site drainage.
Protection
Opus is engineered for strength and longevity. Specified and tested for wind and snow loadings to European standards BS 6399-2:1997 & BS 6399-3:1988 2. BS EN 13782:2005. The framework is constructed from 76.2mm MagnaTube steel, creating a robust, hard-wearing aggregate storage bay.
