Loose Deliveries

Tipper vehicles are undoubtedly the most economical way to deliver larger loose loads. We have an array of different vehicles to cover various sized loose deliveries.

 The smallest tippers that we employ carry a weight of 10 tonnes. Whilst they can carry loads smaller than this the delivery charge for the entire vehicle remains the same so the cost per tonne would increase.  The largest lorries on which we can make deliveries are articulated vehicles. These vehicles carry substantial loads of up to 29 tonnes in weight and up to 40m³of the lightweight materials such as Mulches and Woodchips. Inevitably articulated loads are the fastest and most economic way to obtain large loose loads, but due to the considerable size of the vehicles it is vital that they can gain access to the delivery destination easily.

All tipper loads sold by the tonne are weighed out on our calibrated weighbridge at our Smallfield site.  A weighbridge ticket will always be sent to you with your delivery note. 

 

VEHICLES WITH A GRAB FACILITY

For loose loads that are particularly demanding, we are able to bring in vehicles with a grab facility. These vehicles combine the efficiency of tipper lorries with the flexibility of crane mounted vehicles. This is an ideal delivery method for situations where the vehicle itself may not be able to reach but its grab arm could, such as over a hedge or wall.
