MOT Type 1 near me 

So, what is MOT Type 1?

This is a popular type of MOT. Customers can expect to find pieces of limestone and granite that range from dust to 40mm. We collect these primary building materials from quarries around Harlow.

The Ministry of Transport (a regulatory body that managed transport networks) has approved this product for use in transport bases. In fact, any product that has MOT in the title is suitable for transport bases. 

MOT Type 1 can bear the weight of driveways, car parks, and motorways. 

Recycled Type 1 MOT

Like Regular Type 1, Recycled MOT Type 1 is suitable for sub bases.

This type of MOT does not contain primary building materials. Instead, it contains recycled materials that come from demolition sites around Harlow. We collect limestone, brick, concrete, and granite. We crush the materials down to size and batch them up for delivery.

Recycled Type 1 contains materials that range from dust to 40mm.

MOT Type 2 Clean

MOT Type 2 is one of the most popular screened products that we sell. Screened products only contain one size. We put the materials through a net and throw away everything that is smaller than 40mm. 

This product contains granite and limestone, which are both primary building materials. These strong materials have lots of applications. Most of our customers buy MOT Type 2 for drainage systems.

6F5 and 6F2 Recycled Aggregates 75mm

This is the go-to product for contractors who need recycled materials. We go to demolition sites to collect the materials, which is why there is such as wide range of materials in the finished product. Customers can expect to find pieces of sand, stone, and brick in their batch. 

Most of our customers buy 6F2 Recycled Aggregates for bulk-fill projects. The 75mm pieces of hardcore materials combine with the small pieces of sand to create robust structures.  

Screened Crushed Concrete Type 1 40mm

When contractors need products that have a high flow rate, they buy screened materials. Screened materials are different from other crushed products because they only contain one size. 

This product contains 40mm pieces of crushed concrete. The concrete comes straight from quarries around Harlow. 

40mm pieces of concrete can support flooring projects and drainage systems. 

Screened Crushed Concrete 75mm

This product is another popular choice for contractors in Harlow. Like 40mm pieces of crushed concrete, 75mm pieces of crushed concrete are good for floors and drainage systems. 

In some cases, it can be more cost-effective for contractors to buy 75mm pieces.

Frequently asked crushed concrete questions

Where can I buy crushed concrete near me in Harlow?

Contractors in Harlow have been buying crushed materials from us for years.

What is a sub base?

Sub bases are staples on construction sites all over Harlow. Despite being essential to all kinds of construction tasks, they are easy to make. 

To create bases, contractors have to buy crushed materials. MOT Type 1 hardcore is a popular choice, especially for contractors who have to create transport bases.

Labourers place the materials in the right spot and roll them. They roll the materials to compact them. This process also forces the materials to stay in place. The result is a strong, compact base. 

Bases can be four inches or more. Even thin bases can hold heavy structures.

What do I need to create sub bases for?

Sub bases support structures. Bases ensure that weight is evenly displaced. This is especially important for transport structures that have to support thousands of tons every day.

Common transport structures include driveways, car parks, and motorways.

Common building structures include patios, sheds, and houses.

What can I use crushed concrete for?

Our materials are suitable for many construction tasks. 

Contractors call us when they need to create drainage systems. To create this kind of system, contractors need to buy crushed materials that do not contain bits of debris. Small pieces of hardcore materials obstruct any liquids that pass through the system. 

Bulk-fill tasks are common on construction sites in Harlow. To fulfil this kind of task, contractors buy crushed aggregates. We recommend our 6F2 Recycled Aggregates. This product contains a combination of affordable recycled materials. The 75mm pieces are perfect for this kind of task. 

Most of our customers buy MOT for sub bases. MOT products are designed to support transport bases, but they are also good for building bases. These kinds of products have excellent load-bearing qualities.

Does crushed concrete drain?

There are lots of crushed products to choose from. Whereas one crushed batch might drain well, another crushed batch might not drain at all.

All our products have different flow rates. The term flow rate refers to how quickly liquids pass through different batches. If liquids pass through a batch of materials quickly, it has a high flow rate. The opposite is true of liquids that pass through batches slowly. 

Screened crushed concrete has the highest flow rate of all our concrete products. Screened products only contain one size, which means that liquids can pass through without a problem.

Will crushed concrete harden?

The materials in our most popular batches are already hardcore. Concrete, limestone, and granite are hardcore materials. When these materials go into bases, they undergo processes that crush and compact them. When the materials are set, they harden into place. 

Ready mix concrete is stronger and harder than the crushed alternative.

What are my delivery options?

We only deliver orders that are over 8 tons. This applies to every kind of product that we sell. 

We also only deliver to construction sites that have suitable entrances. Give our team a call on 01992 635454 to see whether you qualify for delivery.

Can I pick a delivery date?

Yes! Customers who qualify for delivery can choose a date and a time slot. 

Our definite time slots help contractors meet deadlines. One of our experienced drivers will arrive during your time slot, drop off the materials, and leave without a fuss. They can even give you advice when they are on-site.

Is crushed concrete harmful?

Safety concerns are more important than ever. The construction industry has lots of rules and regulations, which means that contractors have to be careful about harmful materials.

Concrete can be harmful in a few different ways. Concrete particles can become airborne at any time. This poses a serious threat to labourers and other people on your construction site. The solution is simple; everyone on construction sites should wear a mask. 

Concrete has a high alkali content. When liquids pass through concrete they absorb alkali and become leachates. Leachates can be dangerous, especially if they spread alkali to other areas on your site. Contractors should put pH controls in place to prevent leachates.

Can I talk to someone about safety advice before the delivery? 

Yes! 

At HH Muckers, we care about customer support. Health and safety are two of the most important considerations for contractors. 

If you have already ordered, give us a call on 01992 635454. Our representatives are happy to talk about your situation and give advice. They can give you tailored support.

Can I cancel my order?
