Planning the drop in Clevedon
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Clevedon is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
- In summer Clevedon gets around 16h 38m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
Quantities: a worked example
A 10 × 5 m area at 150 mm compacted is 7.5 m³. At about 2.1 tonnes per cubic metre plus 10% that is 17.3 tonnes, or around 21 bulk bags. Try the sub-base calculator
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.
Common questions from Clevedon
Can I add other materials to my Clevedon 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.
Does Type 1 drain?
Type 1 is reasonably free-draining when compacted, which is one reason it is used under drives and patios.
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.
Do you deliver MOT Type 1 to trades and homeowners in Clevedon?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
