What is BS3882 Certification for Topsoil

BS 3882 on the specification for topsoil covers natural and manufactured topsoils that are moved or traded, not topsoils remaining in situ. It specifies requirements both for multipurpose topsoil, fit for the majority of needs, and for specialist topsoils that have low fertility or are acidic or calcareous.

Why do you sell bulk and loose items online?
We are taking steps to get our products online as most other are. Our bulk items require special handling and usually home delivery in one of our large trucks, so in this way we can coordinate our deliveries and provide our customers with the best experience when purchasing these bulk items. Our Bulk bags carry roughly 1m3 of material, and the weight of that differs depending upon the material. In some cases, ordering loose material to be delivered in a grab or tipper truck may be a better alternative.
Why do you have different prices for larger quantities?
With bulk delivery items such as aggreggate, soil and other loose products, it is more cost effective to order and deliver larger quantities, so we have made sure our pricing structure reflects this.
