Delivering ballast and gravel in Glasgow

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

• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around G are priced to the exact address.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Decorative areas

Lay decorative gravel over a weed membrane and a firm base so it does not sink.
