How delivery works in Pontypridd

Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Pontypridd 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.
• On busy streets in Pontypridd, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
