Delivery to Weymouth: what helps

Bulk bags are usually lifted off by crane where access allows; tell us where they can sit and whether the ground is firm. Weymouth 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.
• With roughly 7h 58m of daylight in Weymouth around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• In summer Weymouth gets around 16h 29m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
