Getting carcassing timber onto your Mangotsfield site

Timber is delivered in packs or bundles on a flatbed; long lengths need clear access along the drop point. Mangotsfield is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
