- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- On busy streets in East Grinstead, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
Before you order MOT Type 1

Questions about MOT Type 1 delivery in East Grinstead
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.
Does Type 1 drain?
Type 1 is reasonably free-draining when compacted, which is one reason it is used under drives and patios.
