Delivery to North Shields: what helps

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

  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Plywood questions

What size is a sheet of plywood?

The standard sheet is 2440 × 1220 mm, also known as 8 × 4 feet.

Do you deliver plywood to trades and homeowners in North Shields?

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

How soon can plywood be delivered in North Shields?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

Is shuttering ply suitable for building?

It is made for concrete formwork, not for permanent structural decks. Use structural ply for roofs and floors.
