How delivery works in Ampthill
Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Ampthill is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
- If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
- In summer Ampthill gets around 16h 44m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
Estimating your plywood
Decking 8 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 3 sheets including 10% for cutting.
Plywood in Ampthill: questions
How soon can plywood be delivered in Ampthill?
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.
Can I add other materials to my Ampthill 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.
What size is a sheet of plywood?
The standard sheet is 2440 × 1220 mm, also known as 8 × 4 feet.
Is shuttering ply suitable for building?
It is made for concrete formwork, not for permanent structural decks. Use structural ply for roofs and floors.
