Full details
This 850 Kg bulk bag of Buttercup Farm Decorative Stone (20mm Blue Slate) is designed for gardeners and landscapers needing a substantial amount of aggregate for projects like driveways, garden borders, and paths. Its key benefit is providing ample coverage, approximately 12 square meters per bag, for larger landscaping needs. A key caveat is the strict delivery process requiring suitable access for a rigid 16-tonne vehicle and the guarantee of only curbside delivery.

Troubleshooting
Delivery vehicle cannot access the property.
Ensure the delivery route is clear of obstructions and meets the requirements for a 16-tonne vehicle. If access is impossible, contact the delivery company to discuss alternatives or reschedule. Note that delivery is limited to the curbside.
Uneven surface preventing pallet truck use.
The driver will place the pallet as close as possible to the desired location, but will not operate on grass, gravel, inclines, or declines. You may need to arrange for manual relocation of the bags from the curbside if your desired location is inaccessible.
Color or size of aggregate differs from expectations.
Aggregates are natural products, and variations in exact color and size are normal. The product description and images are representative averages. Minor discrepancies are not considered defects.
