Need timber, paint, plumbing supplies, or other building materials but don't have the time or vehicle to collect them? We'll pick up your order from local builders merchants and deliver it straight to your door. Simple as that.
Running to the builders merchant is one of those jobs that always takes longer than you expect. You drive there, park, find what you need (or discover they don't have it), queue to pay, load the car, drive back, unload. Before you know it, you've lost half a day.
We do this regularly for our own jobs, so we know the merchants, where things are, and who to ask. We can collect your pre-ordered items, or if you give us a list, we'll pick up what you need. It's particularly helpful when you need bulky items (timber, sheets of plywood, bags of cement) that won't fit in a normal car.
| Common Collections | Typical Merchants | Vehicle Needed | Time Required | |-------------------|------------------|----------------|---------------| | Paint, brushes, fillers | Decorators merchant | Van | 45 mins | | Timber, sheet materials | Timber yard, Jewsons | Van with roof rack | 1 hour | | Plumbing supplies | Plumbers merchant | Van | 45 mins | | Mixed materials | Travis Perkins, Wickes | Van | 1 hour |
We're not a full-scale delivery service - we can't collect pallets of bricks or huge bulk orders. But for normal DIY quantities (a few sheets of plasterboard, several lengths of timber, a radiator, bags of aggregate) we're perfect.
This service works brilliantly if you're: - Doing your own work but don't have a van - Coordinating tradespeople and need materials on-site - Too busy to spend time at merchants - Buying online for collection and need someone to pick up

What to Expect
**Before collection:** You'll either order materials for collection online, or send us a list of what you need with merchant preference. We'll confirm the collection time and agree on delivery to your property. **During collection:** We'll go to the merchant, collect your order (or purchase from your list), check everything is correct and undamaged, and load it carefully into our van. **After delivery:** We'll deliver materials to your property and unload them wherever you need - garage, driveway, rear garden. We'll give you the receipt and any leftover change if we purchased on your behalf.
Our Tiverton Service Coverage
We cover Tiverton and a 30-mile radius from Exeter, meaning you get local service with the backing of an established business. Whether you're in the centre of Tiverton or in the surrounding villages, we're here to help.
Good to Know
Send us your materials list or order confirmation as early as possible. If you're ordering for collection, put our business name on the order so we can collect it. For large or heavy orders, think about where materials will be delivered. We can move them around a bit, but if you need a full sheet of plywood carried up three flights of stairs, that's getting into additional time. We can often combine materials collection with other small jobs. If you're booking us for a repair and need materials first, we can collect them on the way to you. Some trade merchants require accounts to purchase. If you're specifying a trade-only supplier, you'll need to arrange account access or pre-payment. Don't expect us to navigate complex merchant accounts or negotiate discounts. We collect what you've ordered or purchase from a simple list. If you need specialist trade knowledge, speak to the merchant directly first.
Frequently Asked Questions about Materials collection in Tiverton
How much does materials collection cost?
We charge £60 for the first hour. Most single merchant collections take around an hour including travel. If you need multiple collections or distant suppliers, it's £50 for each additional hour. So 1.5 hours is £85.
Which builders merchants do you collect from?
We regularly collect from Jewsons, Travis Perkins, Screwfix, Wickes, and local independents around Tiverton. If you've ordered from somewhere specific, just let us know where and we'll collect from there.
Do I need to pay the merchant directly or do you?
You pay the merchant - either order online for collection or give us a list to purchase on your behalf. We'll either collect your pre-paid order or pay on your card and bring you the receipt. Whatever works best for you.
Can you collect materials the same day I need them?
Often yes, depending on our schedule. For same-day collection, call us early in the day. For guaranteed collection on a specific date, book ahead. We can also collect materials a day or two before you need them if that's more convenient.
