How quickly can common boards be delivered to Los Angeles homes for shelving or trim?
Most 1×3, 1×4, and 1×6 boards are stocked locally and can be delivered the same day across LA if ordered early. Smaller orders to neighborhoods like Silver Lake or Culver City often arrive within a few hours. For large bundles or multiple drop‑offs, schedule a time slot so your finish carpenters aren’t waiting on material.
Do you offer white‑glove delivery for common boards in dense LA neighborhoods?
Yes. Select our White Gloves option, and the crew will carry your boards through the first entry point and stage them on ground level. This service is popular in areas such as West Hollywood, Koreatown, and Miracle Mile, where parking is limited and hallways are narrow. If your crew prefers to unload themselves, choose Curbside, and we’ll place the boards within five feet of the truck.
What sizes do common boards come in, and how do I choose the right board?
Common boards are thin boards used for shelving, paneling, and finish trim. Typical nominal sizes include 1×4, 1×6, and 1×8. Because they’re planed smooth, their actual thickness is about ¾ inch, the widths are 3½ inches, 5½ inches, and 7¼ inches respectively. When choosing boards for bookcases or decorative accents in Los Angeles remodels, remember to use the actual dimensions to calculate shelf spans and purchase enough linear footage.
