Delivery to Edinburgh and the Lothians: what helps

Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Edinburgh and the Lothians.

  • On busy streets in Edinburgh and the Lothians, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.

Getting the right plywood

Structural use

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

Thickness for floors

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