MOT Type 1 is a crushed stone sub-base, graded from 31.5 mm (often sold as 40 mm) down to dust, that compacts into a firm, free-draining layer under driveways, patios, paths and floor slabs.

How delivery works in Aylesbury
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Aylesbury is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around HP19 are priced to the exact address.
How much will you need?
A 10 × 6 m area at 150 mm compacted is 9 m³. At about 2.1 tonnes per cubic metre plus 10% that is 20.8 tonnes, or around 25 bulk bags. Try the sub-base calculator
Before you order MOT Type 1
Compaction
Lay and compact in layers with a plate compactor. Allow extra material because it compacts down.
How deep?
Patios and paths commonly use around 100 mm of compacted sub-base, and domestic driveways around 150 mm or more. Soft ground or heavier vehicles need more; your designer or installer will confirm.
Questions about MOT Type 1 delivery in Aylesbury
How deep should a driveway sub-base be?
Around 150 mm of compacted MOT Type 1 is common for domestic drives on firm ground; soft ground or heavier vehicles need more. Follow your installer or the paving maker's guidance.
Can you tip it loose?
For larger quantities we can price a loose tipped load if the lorry can reach and there is space to tip.
Can I add other materials to my Aylesbury delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from MOT Type 1 to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
Do you deliver MOT Type 1 to trades and homeowners in Aylesbury?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
