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.

Do you deliver MOT Type 1 to trades and homeowners in Magherafelt?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

For larger quantities we can price a loose tipped load if the lorry can reach and there is space to tip.
