Description
80% Loamy soil: widely regarded as the ideal soil type for gardens and borders. Loamy soil is a very well-balanced mix of sand, silt and clay, which results in a free-draining soil that is adept at retaining moisture and nutrients.
This bulk soil mix also includes:
15% nutrient-rich compost to promote healthy plant growth.
5% Sandy Grit to further optimise drainage and soil structure.
If you have ordered a variety of soil mixes please note that the following letters will denote what is in the Bulk bag:

Delivery is Kerbside delivery. We don't guarantee the bag can be left within the boundary of your property. If we can't access your driveway the bag will be left at the closest point possible.
The soil is delivered in cubic metre bags placed on a wooden pallet. The soil can only go as close to your site as the hand operated pallet truck allows. The truck is not equipped with a grab so bags cannot be lifted over walls or hedges.
While the delivery driver will do his best to get the bag as close as he can to your property he is unable to move the bag over kerbs, up an incline or on loose gravel surfaces. Remember the bag is extremely heavy and once off the truck is moved by the effort of the driver alone.
Truck Sizes – It is important to note that our Delivery trucks can be quite large. If you are expecting them to be able to get through your gate the gate will need to be at least 3.5 metres wide
Your laneway would have to have overhead coverage of minimum 5metres with no overhanging trees or cables. The trucks are 18 tonne Rigid trucks that are 12m long, 2.5m wide and 4.1m high.
If you are unsure about access to your property please call us beforehand to discuss.
IMPORTANT: If you refuse delivery because of an access issue to your property which we have not been made aware of beforehand, your order will be refunded less a €55.00 collection charge per bulk bag. Please read the above delivery info carefully to avoid any misunderstanding.
