Hallstone products are delivered on pallets and are generally off-loaded using a tail lift and positioned using a manual pallet truck. Manual pallet trucks can only operate on a flat, level, concreted, or similar firm surface. They cannot operate on slopes, gravel, earth, grass or any other type of non-solid surface.

Within the M25 and some surrounding areas, orders may be off-loaded using a vehicle mounted hydraulic crane which lowers the pallet to ground level.

For further delivery information please see our Delivery Policy.

If you have any concerns about delivery, please contact us as other options may be available.
