Before you order MOT Type 1
Compaction
Lay and compact in layers with a plate compactor. Allow extra material because it compacts down.
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.
Planning the drop in Tottenham
Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Tottenham is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
Your questions answered
How much MOT Type 1 do I need?

Yes. We deliver across Tottenham, including N17, N18, N15, N21. Tottenham is inside our standard mainland delivery area. Send your list or call 0800 088 6341 and we will price it delivered to your postcode.
Can I add other materials to my Tottenham delivery?

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