How delivery works in Ross-on-Wye

Bags come on a shrink-wrapped pallet or as part of a mixed load; keep them covered once dropped. Ross-on-Wye is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
