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.
We deliver MOT Type 1 to sites, driveways and yards across Billericay, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

Choosing MOT Type 1
Compaction
Lay and compact in layers with a plate compactor. Allow extra material because it compacts down.
Virgin or recycled?
Recycled Type 1 can be a good option where it meets the specification; ask what your project or local authority requires.
A quick quantity check
A 4 × 3 m area at 100 mm compacted is 1.2 m³. At about 2.1 tonnes per cubic metre plus 10% that is 2.8 tonnes, or around 4 bulk bags. Try the sub-base calculator
Before your Billericay delivery arrives
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Billericay is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- On busy streets in Billericay, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
MOT Type 1 Sub-base in Billericay: questions
Is there a minimum order for delivery to Billericay?
There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
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.
