Getting plywood onto your Abingdon site

Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Abingdon is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• With roughly 7h 48m of daylight in Abingdon around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
• In summer Abingdon gets around 16h 40m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Plywood: choosing well

Structural use

Roof decks and floors need plywood marked for structural use. Check the thickness against the joist spacing.

Interior or exterior?

BS EN 636 classes plywood as class 1 (dry), class 2 (humid) or class 3 (exterior). Use class 3 for anything exposed to the weather.

Quantities: a worked example

Decking 12 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 5 sheets including 10% for cutting.

Common questions from Abingdon

How soon can plywood be delivered in Abingdon?

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.

How many sheets of plywood do I need?

Divide the area by 2.98 m² (the area of an 8 × 4 sheet) and add about 10 percent for cutting.

Can I add other materials to my Abingdon delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from plywood to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Is shuttering ply suitable for building?

It is made for concrete formwork, not for permanent structural decks. Use structural ply for roofs and floors.
