Delivery to Bedford: what helps
CLS travels in bundles alongside plasterboard and is easy to hand off at the kerb. Bedford is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
Things to check before you order
Which size?
38 × 63 mm suits most partitions up to standard ceiling heights. 38 × 89 mm gives stiffer, taller walls and more room for insulation.
Loadbearing walls
If the wall carries load it needs graded timber to a design. Plain CLS is not automatically structural.
A quick quantity check
A 3 m partition 2.4 m high at 400 mm centres takes 9 CLS studs, 6 m of head and sole plate and a row of noggins, then boarding on both sides. Work out the boards too
CLS Studwork Timber questions
How soon can CLS timber be delivered in Bedford?
We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.
What does CLS stand for?
Canadian Lumber Standard. It refers to the way the timber is dried, planed and finished with rounded edges.
Do you deliver CLS timber to trades and homeowners in Bedford?
Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
How many studs do I need?
Divide the wall length by the stud spacing (400 or 600 mm), add one, then add plates and noggins. Our plasterboard calculator gives the boards for the same wall.
