Working out quantities for your Preston job

Delivering bagged concrete and mortar in Preston

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

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

Check the yield

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