You can get different grades of 804 depending on where it's being used (black for driveways, grey for subfloors etc.). Last load I got for a yard cost 150 for 20 ton and 50 for delivery. Worked out at 10 euro/ton. Driveway quality can work out around 15 euro/ton.
Gravel will be about 10 euro/ton and sand 8-10 euro/ton in the Kildare area.
Needless to say if you're buying in small bags it's more, somtimes about four times this cost.

The price you pay depends on the tonnage you order, so if you only want a 1t bag of Cl 804, you could end up paying €30+ depending on the delivery charge. Work out what quantities you need, then start ringing around.
Oh, and haggle like hell!!
