Delivery to Blairgowrie: what helps

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

  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around PH10 are priced to the exact address.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Picking the right product

Gravel size

20 mm gravel suits concrete and drainage layers; 10 mm and pea gravel suit bedding pipes and paths.

Ballast or separate sand and gravel?

All-in ballast is convenient for general concrete. For more control over the mix, use separate sharp sand and gravel.

Ballast & Gravel in Blairgowrie: questions

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.

Can I add other materials to my Blairgowrie delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from ballast and gravel to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Do you deliver ballast and gravel to trades and homeowners in Blairgowrie?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Do you deliver ballast in bags?

Yes, bulk bags for most jobs and small bags for small quantities or tight access.
