Delivery to Ripley: what helps

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

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.

A quick quantity check

Setting 12 fence posts in Ripley 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

Things to check before you order

Post mix quantities

Most makers say how many bags per post; it depends on the hole size.

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.

Common questions from Ripley

Can I add other materials to my Ripley delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from bagged concrete and mortar to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

When should I use ready-mixed concrete instead?

Once you need more than about half a cubic metre, mixing from bags gets slow and costly; ballast and cement or ready-mixed concrete usually make more sense.

Do you sell mortar in bags?

Yes, pre-blended mortar mix for small jobs.

Do you deliver bagged concrete and mortar to trades and homeowners in Ripley?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
