Delivering ballast and gravel in Rhyl
Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Rhyl is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
- Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
