Planning the drop in Catford
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Catford is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
Quantities: a worked example
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
Getting the right 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.
Questions about MOT Type 1 delivery in Catford
How much MOT Type 1 do I need?
Multiply the area by the compacted depth to get cubic metres, then allow about 2.1 to 2.2 tonnes per cubic metre. At 100 mm deep, a tonne covers roughly 4.5 square metres.
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.
