Delivering plywood in Thamesmead

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

  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
