How delivery works in Gillingham

Boxed fixings travel with the rest of your order. Gillingham is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Choosing screws and nails

Inside or outside?

Use galvanised, coated or stainless fixings outdoors and with treated timber, so they do not corrode.

Structural fixings

Joist hangers, straps and structural connections need the fixings the connector maker specifies.

Your questions answered

How long should a screw be?

As a rough guide, at least two and a half times the thickness of the material being fixed.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Gillingham?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

Can you deliver screws and nails to a site with restricted access in Gillingham?

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 screws for decking?

Coated or stainless decking screws designed for treated timber outdoors.
