Delivery area
Bulk topsoil delivered across Newcastle
From Heaton and Fenham to Gosforth, Kenton and the newer estates around Great Park, Newcastle jobs vary a lot. Most of the difference is in how the lorry gets in, so access is the first thing we ask about.
- Five tonnes minimum
- Loose or bulk bags
Streets and access in the city
Many inner-city streets in Newcastle are lined with terraces and Tyneside flats, with parked cars on both sides and back lanes behind. A loose load usually can’t go on the road without permission, so bulk bags craned over a yard wall or onto a forecourt are often the practical choice.
In the suburbs, wider driveways in places like Gosforth, Jesmond and Westerhope often have room for a tipper. Tell us how long and wide the drive is, and whether the surface is block paving or tarmac.
