Don't know if it helps, but B+Q do a delivery service.


Not to Scottish islands :-) Or even to all rural areas on the mainland.

BQ delivery says

"Delivery is available to all UK mainland addresses."

except the remote mainland addresses where

"Customers living in some remote rural areas should note some delivery
services are either extended by 2 working days, or in some instances NOT
AVAILABLE AT ALL "

I've just checked their list of remote locations - delivery is now
available to my postcode! (2 days later, of course)
It wasn't available, years ago - I always had to arrange for it on my
own, which became a major pain after my favourite service went out of
business/was bought out.
