Getting plywood onto your Letchworth Garden City site

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

  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.

How much will you need?
