Planning the drop in Brynmawr
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Brynmawr is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around NP23 are priced to the exact address.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
Before you order MOT Type 1
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.
A quick quantity check
An 8 × 3 m area at 100 mm compacted is 2.4 m³. At about 2.1 tonnes per cubic metre plus 10% that is 5.5 tonnes, or around 7 bulk bags. Try the sub-base calculator
