Delivering plywood in Consett

Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Consett 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.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

How much will you need?

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