Aggregate Supply and Delivery in Dorset

As well as taking material away, Quick Skips supplies it. The grab lorry fleet delivers loose aggregates to homes, building sites and landscaping jobs across east Dorset, in quantities to suit the job, from a small load for a garden project to a bulk delivery for a site.

Because the lorry carries its own loading arm, a delivery does not always have to be tipped in one heap at the kerb. Where access allows, the operator can place material over a wall or fence, closer to where you will use it.

Aggregates we supply

• Sand

  For bedding, building and general construction use. Ask which grades are available when you call.

• Topsoil

  For lawns, borders, raised beds and making up levels after building work.

• Recycled aggregates

  Produced in-house from recovered material. A cost-effective choice for construction work and utility installations.

• Road planings

  Reclaimed road surfacing, often used for tracks, yards and hardstandings.

• Slag

  A hard-wearing fill used beneath roads, yards and hardstandings.

• Concrete products

  Concrete-based materials for sub-bases, fill and general construction work.

Stock changes through the year. If you need a particular material or grade, ask the office and they will tell you what is available and when.

One lorry in, one lorry out

Most jobs that need aggregates also produce waste. A new driveway means digging out the old one. A patio needs a sub-base once the turf and soil have gone. Using one firm for both the muck away and the materials means one phone call and one account.

Ask when you book whether a delivery and a collection can be paired up on your job.

Ordering the right amount

Loose aggregates are sold by weight. Each eight-wheel lorry carries up to 16 tonnes, and larger orders are simply split across more than one load. If you are not sure how much you need, have the length, width and depth of the area to hand when you call and the team can talk the quantity through with you.
