Planning the drop in Frome

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

  • In summer Frome gets around 16h 35m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • With roughly 7h 52m of daylight in Frome around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
