How delivery works in Weston-super-Mare
Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Weston-super-Mare is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
Ballast & Gravel: choosing well

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.
