  • Any tips on getting a Selco account without having an Ltd or anything? If I just turned up to do a big order for a garden office build would they let me create one?

  • Unless it's changed you didn't used to technically need to be a ltd to register. Just show a business card or letter headed paper or something.

    To get a Selco trade card account, simply fill out our registration form and supply one of the following proofs of business:
    Business Card Letterhead Compliment Slip Certificate of Incorporation Your Company Invoice/Order Form VAT Certificate Tax Related Document CSCS card Tenancy Agreement (Landlords) Tenancy Deposit Protection Certificate Liability Insurance Certificate Company Bank Statement Check A Trade Reference Alternative Merchant Invoice CITB Web Log In Page Company Website Mybuilder.com Profile Accountant Confirmation Letter Van Signage Floor Plans and Blue Prints Payslips (Trade Company) Estate Agent's Correspondence (For Landlords) Official Sub Contractor Job Specification

    Once you've completed the form, you'll get your trade card number straight away. Unlike with other builders' merchants, there's no need to wait to start buying whatever you need.

    Note that buying overstocked supplies on ebay (or similar) would be cheaper (but slower) for a one-off build compared to going for retail minus vat.

  • I did. I did actually have a ltd that I could have used, but they never asked to see the details.
