MOT Type 1 Sub-base delivered to Morley

MOT Type 1 is a crushed stone sub-base, graded from 31.5 mm (often sold as 40 mm) down to dust, that compacts into a firm, free-draining layer under driveways, patios, paths and floor slabs.

Trades and homeowners in Morley can order MOT Type 1 for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

Picking the right product

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.

  • In summer Morley gets around 17h 05m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
