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

  • In summer Bury St Edmunds gets around 16h 47m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Picking the right product

Thickness for floors

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

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 36 m² with 2440 × 1220 mm sheets takes 14 sheets including 10% for cutting.

Your questions answered

Do you deliver plywood to trades and homeowners in Bury St Edmunds?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

What plywood should I use outside?

Use plywood with an exterior bond, class 3 under BS EN 636, or marine ply for very wet conditions.

Can you deliver plywood to a site with restricted access in Bury St Edmunds?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Is shuttering ply suitable for building?

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