All delivery timescales are subject to product and delivery slot availability. Small accessory parcels may be delivered via Royal Mail. Delivery for small items is 1-3 working days subject to availability. However, delivery may take up to five working days. Working days are Monday – Friday.

The contents of your order and your delivery postcode area will determine which delivery services you will be offered. We do not deliver to Post Office (P.O.) boxes, or shipping agent addresses. If you require the goods sending to a BFPO address please contact us prior to ordering for availability. Subject to availability, surcharges may apply.

DPD (Local) are our main handler within the Mainland UK. You will receive a text and email notification confirming your delivery. Please provide a valid mobile number at checkout to receive text updates.

Additional delivery services may be offered such as Next Working Day. Whilst these services are not guaranteed, 98% of orders placed on our webstore before 12pm (Noon) are delivered Next Working Day (Monday to Friday exc. Bank Holidays).

Delivery will be between the hours of 7am and 6pm; unfortunately we are unable to confirm an accurate time. If goods are sent via DPD Local, providing an accurate mobile number is provided at time of checkout, you will receive regular text notifications including ETA’s.

If you have ordered multiple items, these may be sent in separate packages. Please check your delivery to ensure all items have been received safely, and respond to any push notifications sent by the carriers which may reference packages that are due to follow or need further information in order to complete a delivery. In some cases, parcels may be split at the carriers sorting depots and delivered on separate vehicles by different drivers. Please monitor your tracking for updates or prompts that require a response to avoid parcels being returned to consignor as undeliverable or unresponsive.

Failed deliveries due to an incorrect or invalid address provided at time of checkout, or in writing, or returned to us as “refused delivery” or “unresponsive” may be chargeable at the cost of rerouting and/or returning the item back to us and deducted from the refund. The carriers typically attempt delivery 2-3 times, and may leave the consignment at a local collect point (subject to service) for between 1-3 days, before returning to sender if the consignment has not been recovered. In most cases the carriers will charge for failed, refused or unresponsive deliveries. Charge is subject to delivery service used to deliver the consignment. Concerns relating to a delivery address must be provided in writing at the earliest opportunity following an order being placed. We are able to amend an address in most cases prior to the shipment leaving us. Amending an address following a shipment may result in rerouting charges, charged by the carriers.  Offshore deliveries rerouting charges may apply if the delivery fails. This includes the cost to ship the consignment back to us. Customers are liable for additional postage and packaging costs. To minimise unnecessary charges, double check the address and postal code you supply at checkout before processing to payment.

We can only send to the address entered on the web order prior to payment. Addresses supplied through PayPal or any other payment method offered at time of order may not be received and processed. If you need to amend an address, please notify us in wiring at the earliest opportunity. If we are able to amend the delivery address before the goods are officially scanned and collected by the carriers (which can be before the goods are marked as “despatched” or “completed” on our systems), additional charges may not apply. If the address needs to be amended while the consignment is in the carriers network, additional charges may apply. See above for details.

We will select the most appropriate carrier for your goods. This means your delivery may arrive in more than one batch to ensure your order is transported in the best possible way.

Whilst every reasonable effort shall be made to keep to any delivery date, time of delivery shall not be of the essence and we shall not be liable for any losses, costs, damages or expenses incurred by the customer or any other person or company arising directly or indirectly out of any failure to meet any estimated delivery date. The risk in the goods shall pass from the company to the customer upon delivery of such goods to the customer.
