Shop Sites
Shop Site Groups
 |
Sheffield’s shopping sites are divided into 4 groups, Principal, Gateway & District, Neighbourhood and Local. We aim to keep every site predominantly litter free with no overflowing litter bins.
Principal Shop Sites
Features:
- An area that has a high volume of pedestrians and vehicular traffic
- A concentration of all the major outlets for residents relating to food, finance and leisure
- A significant choice of businesses on the site which would include a Post Office, bank, supermarket, takeaway outlets, various other types of retail and leisure outlets
- Residents of Sheffield would travel to this location from a five-mile radius
Cleaning Regime
Principal sites have a lengthsperson to carry out cleaning duties Monday to Saturday all year round.
Mechanical sweepers as back-up where necessary.

Gateway & District Shop Sites
Features:
Includes any neighbourhood sites that are both on a Gateway and near a Secondary School/College with lunchtime/after school shopping.
An area that has a medium volume of pedestrians and vehicular traffic
A medium number of retail and leisure outlets available
Area tends to cater for people in a catchment area smaller than a Principal Shop Site
Cleaning Regime
In the Investment Trial Areas the sites are cleaned daily, the remaining sites in the city are cleaned 3 times per week.
Neighbourhood Shop Sites
Features:
Any shop site near a Secondary School that has lunchtime/after school shopping in an area where: -
- Housing is predominantly private
- Housing is predominantly Council
Cleaning regime
In the Investment Trial Area the sites are cleaned 3 times per week, the remaining sites in the city receive 1 visit per week by a mobile team. A mobile team could be a mechanical sweeper or a vehicle with 2 operatives to hand sweep, empty bins and litter pick the site.
Local Shop Site
All other shop sites that are not in the above groups.
The cleaning regime is the same as that for Neighbourhood Shop Sites.
