Concrete Paving Info...
Paving should be stored as vertically as possible. Do not stack horizontally on top of each other. Do not expose palletised pavers to continuous extremes of weather, if it is necessary to store outside, ensure the pavers are covered to avoid excessive hot or damp conditions. Keep palletised pavers out of sunlight for extreme lengths of time and keep covered until laid.
Our pallets and specially designed A-Frame pallets carry a charge of $33.75 including GST for 450x450 and smaller pavers and $56.25 including GST for 600x600 pavers. This pallet charge is refundable if you wish to return them back to us, provided they are in the same condition as when they left our yard. Pallet returns are the responsibility of the purchaser.
We pack our paving in lots of 30 units with environmentally friendly polystyrene spacers between each paver to ensure safety of each unit in transportation and handling. If you wish to return the polystyrene packaging to us, you are most welcome, provided they are bundled together, and they will be reused to avoid wastage and to keep our environment tidier.
Where necessary, we freight all our paving by hiab truck. Freight charges can vary depending on quantity and size of your order, but generally costs $67.50 including GST for one pallet or $45.00 including GST per pallet for two or more pallets in the Auckland area.
