Delivery to Cwmbran: 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. Cwmbran is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
- Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
