    Default Plywood Question

    I will be making a custom 6'x3'x3' enclosure for the female baby Argentine black and white Tegu I am getting very soon. I have a question about buying plywood. We do not have a truck so I don't know of any other way I can get the plywood to my house. I'm am going to need 4 6'x3' sheets of plywood and 2 3'x3'. Does anyone know if I can get them cut at the sizes and does home depot have a delivery option? Hope this didn't sound like a silly question. This is my first time making a custom cage.

    I know that you can get the wood cut for free at Lowes and Home Depot, but I'm not sure of the delivery part. Do you have a friend or family member with a truck that you can borrow? Or what about renting a pickup truck?

    What about posting you location and seeing if someone on here is close to you that could help you out. Otherwise truck rental would probably be the most economic route.

    Delivery from Lowe's is $65, deff not worth the cost for a few sheets of plywood. They do have a truck you can rent for $20 for 75 mins. Little more work on your part, but much cheaper. Plywood in most locations is free to have cut. Some if you have a ton of cuts will start charging per cut, usually about 25 cents per cut.
