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.
