What happens if my concrete delivery trucks are delayed?
Most rental agreements include a waiting time clause, charging extra per hour once a grace period, often 15 to 30 minutes, is exceeded. This protects the supplier since the pump and crew are on standby regardless of truck delays. Sparkline Group encourages tight coordination between the batching plant and site to avoid these charges. Poor coordination is one of the most common causes of unexpectedly high pump invoices. Confirming your concrete supply schedule before the pump arrives is the best way to avoid this.
