Delivering ballast and gravel in Falkirk

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

• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
