Delivery to Cowes: what helps
Sheets come in packs on the lorry bed, crane-lifted or hand-offloaded. Cowes needs a ferry crossing, so deliveries are quoted individually with the crossing included.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
- On busy streets in Cowes, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
