Plywood for Forres, delivered to site

Plywood is a sheet material made from thin layers of wood veneer glued with the grain at right angles, which makes it strong and stable; the standard sheet is 2440 × 1220 mm.

We deliver plywood to sites, driveways and yards across Forres, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

Before you order plywood

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.

Structural use

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

Delivery to Forres: what helps

Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Forres is in an area where deliveries are priced individually because of the distance and access, so we quote each order separately.

  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around IV36 are priced to the exact address.
  • In summer Forres gets around 18h 04m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
