Do you keep the bags or offer a money back deal for them? local building firms used to give you a few quid back for your empty ton bags as they were only charging £20-£25 for a bag of building sand and the bag maybe cost £4

Just out of interest how do you deliver it? With a hiab or tail lift?

 

 

 

Drag it off the back of our, new to us last week, Nissan cabstar currently. We have a manual crane lift thing to fit to the back this week. Not bothering with an electric hydraulic just yet, for cost and load capacity loss. Start simple and see how we go.

if you go hydraulic I recommend stepping up to a 5 ton it's our biggest hassle being limited to 2 bag delivery or taking the trailer.

We'd rather not ever have to bother with the expense of that. Plus I do a lot of deliveries down small streets and back alleys packed with cars. You cant beat this little truck for that I don't think.

 

Appreciate the advice though!
