How delivery works in Lanarkshire
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 Lanarkshire.
- On busy streets in Lanarkshire, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
Picking the right product

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.
