How delivery works in Greenford

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

• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Quantities: a worked example

A base 3.6 × 1.8 m and 100 mm deep is 0.65 m³ of concrete. At 1:5 with 5% extra that is about 1.48 tonnes of all-in ballast and 11 bags of cement. Try the concrete calculator
