Delivery to Rushden: what helps

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

• In summer Rushden gets around 16h 47m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• On busy streets in Rushden, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

Quantities: a worked example

A floor 3.6 m wide with joists spanning 3.3 m at 400 mm centres needs 10 joists, plus trimmers and noggins. The section and grade, such as 47 × 200 mm C24, come from span tables or your engineer; send us the timber schedule and we will price it.

Before you order carcassing timber

C16 or C24?

C24 is stronger and stiffer, so it can span further or use a smaller section. Span tables and your structural drawings decide which grade and size you need.

Cut ends

Treat any cut ends with a suitable end-grain preservative, especially on external work.

In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.
