MOT Type 1 Sub-base for sites in West Yorkshire

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.

Across West Yorkshire, from Leeds to Guiseley, we supply MOT Type 1 delivered to site with the price and date confirmed in writing.

Delivery to West Yorkshire: 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 West Yorkshire.

  • On busy streets in West Yorkshire, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around LS are priced to the exact address.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

Getting the right MOT Type 1

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.

Your questions answered

Can I add other materials to my West Yorkshire 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.

Can you deliver MOT Type 1 to a site with restricted access in West Yorkshire?

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.

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.
