Getting plywood onto your Ripley site

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

• Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
• On busy streets in Ripley, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Picking the right product

Interior or exterior?

BS EN 636 classes plywood as class 1 (dry), class 2 (humid) or class 3 (exterior). Use class 3 for anything exposed to the weather.

Thickness for floors

18 mm or more is common for floors on joists at 400 mm centres; follow your design.

Your questions answered

Do you deliver plywood to trades and homeowners in Ripley?

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

Can you deliver plywood to a site with restricted access in Ripley?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

What size is a sheet of plywood?

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

Is shuttering ply suitable for building?

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