Getting ballast and gravel onto your Alloa site

Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Alloa is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• In summer Alloa gets around 17h 39m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Questions about ballast and gravel delivery in Alloa

Can you deliver ballast and gravel to a site with restricted access in Alloa?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

How much gravel do I need for a path?

Multiply the area by the depth (often 40 to 50 mm for decorative gravel) to get cubic metres, then allow about 1.5 tonnes per cubic metre.
