Onoff Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 A mate is looking for approx 32 75mm PIR boards 2.4x1.2m. Make not important. He reckoned about £25 each but I reckon that's way too much. I told him about secondsandco. Any other companies to look at? We're in Kent if it makes any difference. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crofter Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I've just taken delivery of my secondsandco order. The driver said that they have a contract with Kingspan to take all their reject sheets and nobody else can get them. I found them pretty good to deal with and they drove a lorry all the way to Skye for £50, which surely must have wiped out their entire profit margin on the order!

Stones Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I'm guessing what they are paying for the sheets, they will still be making plenty of money. £50 to Skye, what a great price. I've just been stung on the cost of getting a staircase delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crofter Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I assumed they would be contracting it out to a local company at that price, but no it was their own lorry. Took a load to Ullapool, stopped in with me on the way back, and drove all the way back to Wales empty. Crazy, really! They get the boards for free though as it saves Kingspan the landfill cost. The driver told me that the first couple of miles of board in each run are generally discarded as they have a high proportion of faults. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
