Getting ballast and gravel onto your West Yorkshire site
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 West Yorkshire.
- Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
- On busy streets in West Yorkshire, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
Before you order ballast and gravel

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

Common questions from West Yorkshire
How soon can ballast and gravel be delivered in West Yorkshire?
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.
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 much ballast for a cubic metre of concrete?
Roughly 2 to 2.2 tonnes of all-in ballast with about 15 bags of cement at a 1:5 mix. Our concrete calculator works out your slab or footing.
Do you deliver ballast and gravel to trades and homeowners in West Yorkshire?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
