Garden & Landscaping Supplies Delivered to Corio 3214

Bulk materials delivered across Corio

Corio, Norlane and North Shore share postcode 3214, 48 km from Altona and the first Geelong postcode on the freeway run. The housing is largely post-war on generous blocks, which is a good combination for us: room for a truck out front, and gardens big enough that a full load makes sense.

Mulch and garden mix carry most orders — established beds that need refreshing, lawns being rebuilt — with crushed rock for driveways and shed pads. Zone 3 rates apply, and because this is a longer run we confirm a delivery window when the order is placed rather than promising next day.

Soil & site conditions

Corio sits on basalt-derived clay, and close to the bay that ground tends to run alkaline as well as heavy. Water moves through it slowly, so beds cut into the native soil often sit wet in winter and set hard in summer. Wind off Corio Bay adds to the drying. The practical answer is depth: a decent layer of imported garden mix, beds kept proud of the surrounding ground, and a mulch layer thick enough to still be there at the end of summer.

Truck access in Corio

Access is usually easy in 3214 — wide streets, long driveways, plenty of frontage. We need about 3.5 m of clear width to the drop point, firm level ground for the tray, and clear height overhead. Where a driveway is old concrete or a crossover looks marginal, the nature strip is the safer drop and we will keep the footpath clear. Tell us at ordering if the load is going to a rear yard through a side gate.
