Planning the drop in Heston

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

• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
