Mix of 5mm-20mm gravel £33/tonne. 10mm pea gravel £35/tonne. £8 to deliver in bag (1tonne). You then take the bag back to Simmons and get £6 back. They delivered it the next day for us and as long as you give them instruction where to put it, you don't need to be in. I went for the 5-20mm as it is easier to walk on without sinking into it. If you need loads they can tip it onto your drive for free. Of course they have a big selection of gravel to choose from, you are best to take a trip up there and have a look. Hope this helpscat_woman said:thanks for the tip on membrane, simmonds the cheapest for gravel to?Moley said:Just used penkridge turf. £1.80/sqr metre for their best turf that is also hard wearing and low to maintain. This is a really good price. Just levelled most of the garden and laid 9 tonnes of gravel from Simmons (all by myself during half term). You can lay turf at any time of the year with the exception of it being frosty as the supplier can not lift it themselves to deliver. Best time to lay turf is autumn as it is damp and turf loves that. If you need membrane for anything buy it from Wickes. £20 for 150 sqr metres but buy two rolls and get one free.
