Delivery Information

Our shipping days are Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays and orders received before 11.00am on those days will normally be sent straight out. Orders received after 11.00am and on Tuesdays and Fridays will leave the next shipping day.

Northern Ireland:

Brexit is making life almost impossible and now DHL Parcels are insisting we register for extra customs clearance documentation which we are just not geared up for. Unfortunately this means we currently cannot supply our friends in Northern Ireland.

General:

Please include your mobile phone number when checking out so that you automatically receive an SMS from DHL Parcels UK confirming that the goods have been collected from our warehouse and informing you of the expected delivery date and one-hour slot. All deliveries sent with DHL Parcels are supplied on a signature required service. If you have asked for the parcel to left in a safe place, we will convey this instruction to the courier but cannot guarantee this will be done as the service is a POD service and items left without signature are at the discretion of the driver. Please note that DHL Parcels may use sub-contract transport companies - we cannot therefor guarantee that specific instructions, especially requests for the driver to call beforehand, will be carried out. Please bear in mind that these drivers often have a hundred or more deliveries to make in one day!

If the customer requests delivery to be left in a 'safe place' we cannot be held responsible for loss. 

Carriage / Packing charges are subsidised and do not even cover our own net costs - we do not make a profit on carriage!  If you have any queries regarding our carriage charges or delivery to an address, please contact us. Please be aware weights shown on products are approximate and shown only as a guide to the total weight of your order.
