Bulk bags are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; very large quantities can be priced as loose tipped loads where access allows. Worthing 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.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
Getting the right MOT Type 1
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.
Virgin or recycled?
Recycled Type 1 can be a good option where it meets the specification; ask what your project or local authority requires.
Ordering MOT Type 1 for Worthing: FAQs
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.

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
How soon can MOT Type 1 be delivered in Worthing?
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.
Does Type 1 drain?
Type 1 is reasonably free-draining when compacted, which is one reason it is used under drives and patios.
