Planning the drop in Stirling
Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Stirling is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around FK8 are priced to the exact address.

Ballast & Gravel: choosing well
Decorative areas
Lay decorative gravel over a weed membrane and a firm base so it does not sink.
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.
Questions about ballast and gravel delivery in Stirling
Do you deliver ballast in bags?
Yes, bulk bags for most jobs and small bags for small quantities or tight access.
How much gravel do I need for a path?
Multiply the area by the depth (often 40 to 50 mm for decorative gravel) to get cubic metres, then allow about 1.5 tonnes per cubic metre.
How soon can ballast and gravel be delivered in Stirling?
We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.
Can I add other materials to my Stirling delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from ballast and gravel to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
