Frequently asked questions
+Are Nottingham yards open Sunday?
A minority — always ring ahead. Saturday morning coverage is much broader across East Midlands.
+Is weekend pricing higher?
Usually not — but weekend van hire is more expensive.
+Is reclaimed sandstone frost-proof?
Yes — stone that has survived 100+ UK winters is proven. Check for spalling from salt damage.
