How delivery works in Cwmbran
Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Cwmbran 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.
- On busy streets in Cwmbran, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

Cement: choosing well
How much cement do I need?
Work from the mix: a 1:4 mortar or a 1:5 concrete mix tells you the share of cement. Our calculators turn wall or slab sizes into bags.
Storage
Cement goes off if it gets damp. Keep bags on a pallet, covered and off the ground, and order what you will use within its shelf life.
