MOT Type 1 Sub-base delivery in Scunthorpe

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.

We deliver MOT Type 1 to sites, driveways and yards across Scunthorpe, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Before you order 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.

Ordering MOT Type 1 for Scunthorpe: FAQs

How soon can MOT Type 1 be delivered in Scunthorpe?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

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.

Does Type 1 drain?

Type 1 is reasonably free-draining when compacted, which is one reason it is used under drives and patios.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Scunthorpe?

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.
