Delivery to Perth and Kinross: what helps
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 Perth and Kinross.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around PH are priced to the exact address.
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.
Ordering MOT Type 1 for Perth and Kinross: FAQs
Do you deliver MOT Type 1 to Perth and Kinross?
Yes. We deliver across Perth and Kinross, including PH. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Perth and Kinross. Send your list or call 0800 088 6341 and we will price it delivered to your postcode.
Can I add other materials to my Perth and Kinross 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.
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.
