Delivery as Tipload or in Bulk Bag or in Construction Sack

Tipload delivery

Tipload delivery of your material is almost always possible in most areas.
It is usually only possible to hold one material on a tipload truck, very rarely some loads can facilitate two materials.

If you have special wishes for delivery places at your address please make a note about this in your order, and make a mark of the drop location at the property. Please be aware that the truck driver absolutely decides the best place for the tipload, if your delivery wish can not be fulfilled. Examples of problems are narrow driveways or driveways built without ballast for heavy loads. If you want the tipload spread down a long alley, this can be arranged with the driver in some cases. Please be aware that the most normal place for delivery is by the curb of your property.

Bulk Bag delivery

Select delivery in Bulk Bag when you order. If your need of Sand, Stone or Gravel are small amounts ranging from 1 to 5 tons, you should order your products in Bulkbags.

A Bulkbag consists of 850kg of material. They are delivered to your curb, driveway, or on your property if your property is suitable for handling trucks with heavy loads. If you specifically require a HIAB delivery then we suggest you send us amail to info@gravelbase.co.uk prior to ordering as the system is set up with a pallet line delivery.

The Sand, Stone or Gravel Bulk Bag will be placed according to your delivery wish, if the truck diver finds it possible, otherwise the driver will place the Bulk Bag in the best suitable location. Please notice that the driver has the absolute last say in this matter.
