Delivering plywood in Hinckley

Sheets travel flat on the lorry bed and are hand-offloaded or crane-lifted in packs. Hinckley 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.
• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

Yes. Put everything on one list, from plywood to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
