Coroplast, will it roll up

Hi

I've ordered some coroplast and planning to pick it up. Now my car is not very big, will this stuff roll up?

Many Thanks

Melanie

Re: Coroplast, will it roll up

It should. Look at the direction the corrogation (Is that a word?) goes and roll with it. That is, your don't want the channels bent when you roll the coroplast up. You'll also need a large bungee cord or some packing tape to secure the roll.

Re: Coroplast, will it roll up

The 4mm thivkness coroplast (what most of us have I think) rolls up, but it helps to have two people do it. I don't think the 6mm thickness will roll. I've fit rolled coro in both the back seat of the back of Honda Civic and a small Acura, so it should fit in your small car!

Re: Coroplast, will it roll up

Hi

Thanks for your replies. I ended up getting the Corroplast delivered. The guy from the shop said he was going to be in my area and would just drop it off on his way by, which was nice of him.

Thanks again

Melanie

Re: Coroplast, will it roll up

Mel, I just got finished transporting our coraplast from only a few blocks away it wasn't easy to hold it on top of the roof. But, after much determination we got it home..

Re: Coroplast, will it roll up

I just gave my neighbours a laugh last night, as I tried to roll up the corroplast which had been pretending to hide under the couch in my front room!!! You can imagine!

Re: Coroplast, will it roll up

According to my question, everybody said they cut it at the store or rolled it up.

Re: Coroplast, will it roll up

I got mine for free from a signmaker that had messed up on one of his signs so he couldn't use it, but it was perfectly fine for my purposes. Since it was free he didn't cut it for us, but did give hubby a box cutter and ruler so hubby could cut it in 2'x4' pieces while there, so basically the same difference
