Delivering MOT Type 1 in Bebington
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Bebington 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.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
Things to check before you order
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.
Compaction
Lay and compact in layers with a plate compactor. Allow extra material because it compacts down.
Questions about MOT Type 1 delivery in Bebington
How soon can MOT Type 1 be delivered in Bebington?
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.
Do you deliver MOT Type 1 to trades and homeowners in Bebington?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
What is the difference between Type 1 and scalpings?
Type 1 is graded to a specification so it compacts into a strong, stable layer. Scalpings are less controlled and suit less demanding areas.
Does Type 1 drain?
Type 1 is reasonably free-draining when compacted, which is one reason it is used under drives and patios.
