    Hi. I know I've just signed up but I'm not really a forum type person. I do read forums but never post.

    I'm an electrician by trade.

    Thought I'd see if anyone wanted just over a tonne of type 1.

    It's free but you will need to collect.

    I had my driveway done and it's been left over.

    It's in Birmingham Kings Heath.

    I have it on eBay. 131682882780

    Thanks Paul
     
  2. I'm in Devon. Will it fit in the back of my C3 Picasso?

    Shame, too far.:(

    Freecycle/ Freegle if your desperate to shift it.

    Useful stuff to have around but It is a bit like topsoil, when you have some to give away nobody wants it or can't move it. Then once its been skipped everyone wants it.

    Had around 20 tons or so free last year, local car park redone, was cheaper for firm to dump old Mot1 on my track than transport it miles away back to their yard.

    Strange thing with that stuff is that it sounds a lot 20 tons, but doesn't go far when spread out and compacted - must have topped it up though

    That's the problem, nobody wants it, I might end up spreading it on the lane behind my house but it's quite a walk round in a wheel barrow. Will taken me quite a while.
    Thing is It's in my way. Blocking half my new drive lol.

    I know it's £60 a bag usually but that will be delivered for £5 or something. Mine will need shovelling into a pick up or something.

    Just a little track, which is roughly 3.65mtrs wide by around 20-25mtrs length,bod used a 10- 12 ton tandem roller to compact it:), hardcore has never moved & never been topped up in five years.

    I'll see what I can do, if I can't find anyone who wants it I'll have to barrow it round the lane.
