Delivery to Cambuslang: what helps

Bulk bags are usually crane-lifted onto a drive or kerb where the vehicle and access allow; small bags travel with a mixed load. Cambuslang is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around G72 are priced to the exact address.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.

Getting the right sand

Colour of mortar

Building sand colour changes the mortar colour. For matching existing joints, a sample is worth it.

Soft or sharp?

Use soft building sand for mortar because it gives a smooth, sticky mix. Use sharp sand where strength and drainage matter: screeds, concrete and paving beds.

Estimating your sand

A 30 m² floor screed at 65 mm is 1.95 m³: about 3.12 tonnes of sharp sand at a 1:4 mix, or 4 bulk bags at around 850 kg each, plus the cement. Try the sand calculator

Building & Sharp Sand questions

Do you deliver sand to Cambuslang?

Yes. We deliver across Cambuslang, including G72, G73, G74. Cambuslang is inside our standard mainland delivery area. Send your list or call 0800 088 6341 and we will price it delivered to your postcode.

Can bulk bags go on my drive?

Yes, if the crane can reach and the drive can take the weight. Tell us about any block paving or soft ground.

What is the difference between building sand and sharp sand?

Building (soft) sand is fine and makes smooth mortar for laying bricks. Sharp sand is coarser, drains better and is used in concrete, screeds and paving beds.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Cambuslang?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
