Planning the drop in Lincolnshire
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Lincolnshire.
- Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
- On busy streets in Lincolnshire, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
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.
Virgin or recycled?
Recycled Type 1 can be a good option where it meets the specification; ask what your project or local authority requires.

How much MOT Type 1 do I need?

Does Type 1 drain?
