Frequently Asked Questions

How much is a truck load?

For bulk material deliveries, our large Fuso tipper truck can carry up to 5m³ of metal products or up to 8.0m³ of most other bulk materials per trip. Our smaller Foton tipper truck can carry up to 2.0m³ of metal products or up to 4m³ of most other bulk materials per trip.

 

Products such as GAP 20, GAP 40, drainage metal, and other aggregates are significantly heavier than materials like topsoil, bark, mulch, and wood chip. Due to their higher density, we are limited by legal load weights and therefore cannot transport the same volume of metal products as lighter materials in a single load.

We accept payment by EFTPOS, payment link on an invoice and internet banking. Payment is required before delivery.

It’s easier than you think! Simply measure the length and width of your garden bed or driveway, and multiply it by the depth you want to fill. For example: 5m (length) x 2m (width) x 0.1m (10cm depth) = 1 cubic metre (1m³). If you’re unsure, just bring your measurements to our Maungatapere yard or give us a call, and our team will help you calculate the exact amount of landscaping materials required.

 

We are open to everyone! While we supply major commercial building contractors and local Whangarei landscapers, we absolutely welcome DIY enthusiasts and homeowners. Whether you need a single courtesy trailer of garden bark for a weekend project or truckloads of GAP metal, our team is here to help.

For delivery, we are highly flexible – just give us a call at 09 438 5554 to discuss the most cost-effective delivery option for your specific volume of landscape materials.

We recommend using coarse wood chips or bark mulch. Before applying any mulch to your garden, we strongly recommend laying weed mat first, as it provides an additional barrier to help suppress weed growth and improve the long-term effectiveness of your mulch.

Ensure the metal base is installed to a minimum compacted depth of 75mm to provide a stable and durable surface. For added weed suppression, we recommend laying weed mat prior to installation. Ongoing weed control through regular spraying and maintenance is also recommended to keep the area looking its best.

Builder’s mix is a blend of quality sand and GAP 20 metal, specifically designed for use in concrete production. It provides the essential bulk and strength needed when combined with cement and water to create durable concrete.

Yes, in order to make concrete.

For the best results, the existing ground should first be loosened or cultivated to encourage strong root development and good drainage. If the subsoil contains heavy clay, it is recommended to either remove it or apply gypsum to help improve the soil structure. We recommend applying a minimum of 100mm of quality topsoil, with 150mm being ideal for establishing a healthy, long-lasting lawn. A deeper layer of topsoil provides better moisture retention, improved nutrient availability, and a stronger root system, helping your lawn thrive year-round.

Mulch is a protective layer of material applied over the soil surface to help retain moisture, suppress weeds, regulate soil temperature, and improve the overall appearance of your garden. It can also help reduce soil erosion and create healthier growing conditions for plants.At Alpha Landscaping Supplies, we offer a wide range of mulches to suit different landscaping needs, including:

  • Wood Chip Mulch (Coarse & Fine)
  • Bark Mulch (Grades 4 & 5)
  • Forest Floor Mulch
  • Post Peelings
  • Arborist Mulch (blend varies depending on available materials)

If you’re looking for a specific product, we can also source specialty mulches such as Cambian Mulch and other custom options by special order.

Tip: For maximum weed suppression and longevity, we recommend laying weed mat before applying mulch.
