Delivery to Bedford: what helps

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

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

18 mm or more is common for floors on joists at 400 mm centres; follow your design.
