I bet it's nice having some young skins help you out.

 

[Highway Man]

What will you do with the 3 tonne left over?

8 tonn skip coming next week so we can fill the skip with the old drive block paving plus the spoil from the digging today. we had previously dug 1 to 2 tons out after the trees were uprooted

I'm on about the décor gravel. Six tonne will be too much for that border.

guestimated, I thought 6 ton would be about right?

 

[Highway Man]

Its actually quite a bit bigger than it looks in the pics

You will be swimming in it. I doubt it will need 3 tonne.

really? what do you think. order 3 ton and see or 2 ton first?

Can you send stuff like that back?

 

[Highway Man]

Can you send stuff like that back?

I doubt it as once they tip it, its yours

 

[Lirefighter]

Are they mates from the army days?
You can always rely on someone who's been in the forces from my experience.

Take noseall's advice then!

I would put my life on the line for them, they would do the same for me. Not one of them wanted paying and would not accept a penny other than beers all day. I cannot thank them enough

A tonne should cover an area 4.8m x 2.4m at say 50mm deep. You can take a bit off that (area covered) because loose direct loads versus bagged tends to come out less in the bags 850 kg's ish as opposed to a full tonne

Depends how you are buying it I suppose.

well I was thinking ton bags, then the hiab could place it in the air above the area then slitt the bottom of the bags and rake them out
