- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
MOT Type 1 Sub-base: choosing well
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.

Common questions from Sunbury-on-Thames
How much MOT Type 1 do I need?
Multiply the area by the compacted depth to get cubic metres, then allow about 2.1 to 2.2 tonnes per cubic metre. At 100 mm deep, a tonne covers roughly 4.5 square metres.
Do you deliver MOT Type 1 to trades and homeowners in Sunbury-on-Thames?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
Can you deliver MOT Type 1 to a site with restricted access in Sunbury-on-Thames?
Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.
Does Type 1 drain?
Type 1 is reasonably free-draining when compacted, which is one reason it is used under drives and patios.
