Shingle & Gravel delivery

Discuss size, appearance and application before arranging a stone delivery.

The material enquiry

The right specification comes first.

WCR advertises shingle and gravel, with 10 mm and 20 mm shingle mentioned in its social material listings. Tell the team whether your project is decorative, drainage-related or another specified use, then confirm the available size and description before ordering.

Photos on this page show WCR vehicles and material handling. They do not certify a particular product grade. Confirm the description, quantity and availability in your quotation.

01 / Plan the delivery

Choose size and grading for the job

Decorative surfacing and a specified drainage layer can require different stone. Include the required size, grading and application in your enquiry. An advertised shingle size is not proof that the material meets a drainage or permeable construction specification.

02 / Plan the delivery

Confirm the appearance you need

If colour or appearance matters, describe the finish and any existing surface you are matching. The current material and quotation should establish the available option. The WCR stone photographs illustrate working loads; they do not guarantee a particular decorative colour or stone source.

03 / Plan the delivery

Measure and plan placement

Give the area and specified depth or the quantity supplied by your contractor. Keep different stone grades separate and show the unloading position in your photos. WCR can check a grab or tipper delivery arrangement against the route and working space.

Before ordering

Shingle & Gravel questions.

Use the material description and your project specification to agree the order.

Can I enquire about 10 mm or 20 mm shingle?

Yes. WCR has advertised both sizes. State the size and application you need; current material availability and delivery arrangements are confirmed in the quote.

Can I use any gravel for drainage?

No. Check the specified grading and application requirements with your contractor or designer, then confirm the quoted material meets the requirement.
