Boxed fixings travel with the rest of your order. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Ayrshire.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
- Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
