Delivering MOT Type 1 in Oxfordshire
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 Oxfordshire.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around OX are priced to the exact address.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
Getting the right MOT Type 1
Virgin or recycled?
Recycled Type 1 can be a good option where it meets the specification; ask what your project or local authority requires.
Compaction
Lay and compact in layers with a plate compactor. Allow extra material because it compacts down.
Common questions from Oxfordshire
Is there a minimum order for delivery to Oxfordshire?
There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
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.
Can I add other materials to my Oxfordshire 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.
What is the difference between Type 1 and scalpings?
Type 1 is graded to a specification so it compacts into a strong, stable layer. Scalpings are less controlled and suit less demanding areas.
