Delivery to Leicester: what helps

Bags come on a pallet or with a mixed load. Leicester is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Before you order bagged concrete and mortar

Check the yield

Each bag states the volume it makes. Divide your volume by the yield to get the number of bags.

Bagged or site-mixed?

Bagged mixes cost more per cubic metre but save time, waste and space. For anything bigger than a small pad, site-mixed or ready-mixed concrete is usually better value.

How much will you need?

Setting 12 fence posts in Leicester usually takes 12 to 24 bags of 20 kg post mix, depending on the hole size printed on the bag. For a base bigger than about half a cubic metre, all-in ballast and cement are usually better value. Compare with site-mixed concrete

Your questions answered

How much does one bag of concrete make?

The yield is on the bag. As a rough guide a 20 to 25 kg bag makes about 0.01 cubic metres of concrete.

Can you deliver bagged concrete and mortar to a site with restricted access in Leicester?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

How soon can bagged concrete and mortar be delivered in Leicester?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

Is bagged concrete strong enough for a shed base?

For a small base it can be. Follow the bag's guidance on depth and the shed maker's base requirements.
