Question 1

What type of metal is best for my job/project?

Accepted Answer

Contact one of our experienced team members to discuss your project and we can advise or suggest what type of metal/product will best suit your requirements.

Question 2

How much metal will I need?

Accepted Answer

This will depend on the size of your job/project, coverage, etc.  Your contractor may be able to estimate the cubic metres or tonnage that you will require, or feel free to chat to one of our despatch team members.

Question 3

How do I calculate cubic metres?

Accepted Answer

To calculate out the cubic metres (m3) that you may require, follow this simple calculation: 
length x width x depth.  
e.g. if your area is 8 metres long x 3 metres wide and you want a depth of approximately .25 metres, its 8 x 3 x .25 = 6 m3

Question 6

Do you do truck hire only?

Yes, our large fleet of Neville Brothers' trucks are available for hire with driver to cart your metal supplies or remove your cleanfill/spoil from site to tip.  Enquire with our team to see how we can help with cartage.   Hourly rates vary with truck size.

Question 7

What does MAP, PAP, SAP or WAP mean?

Accepted Answer

These are different grades and types of ALL PASSING (AP) products.  ALL PASSING means any piece of metal (aggregate) smaller than the product suffix will be included in the product (e.g. AP40 = 40mm or less) as it will 'pass through' the 40mm sieve.
MAP = MAINTENANCE ALL PASSING
PAP = PREMIUM ALL PASSING
SAP = STABILIZED ALL PASSING
WAP = WASHED ALL PASSING

Question 8

Do you transport stock?

Accepted Answer

Though you may see Neville Brothers stock trucks out on the roads, unfortunately, we no longer deal in stock cartage.  Please contact Braybrook Livestock (Craig) 027 242 0966 for stock cartage.
