Once an order has been accepted regular orders are dispatched within 2 working days and are shipped via Royal Mail, UPS, DHL or Parcel Force depending on the products ordered. UK Orders should be delivered to you within 2-5 working days. If you have not received your order by 7 working days from dispatch, then please contact us.
* For the UK next day option, orders must be received before 14.30 on the (working) day of dispatch. Orders received after 14.30 and on weekends/holidays will be shipped on the next working day. We will use Royal Mail Special delivery for smaller items and DHL for larger items. Certain large/heavy items will not be able to be shipped on the next day service. We will attempt to contact you if there is a problem.
At busy times or during periods of poor weather deliveries may be delayed. Please ensure that you order items with sufficient time to reach you.
Items 1m and over: We have limited delivery options for long items. These items cannot be sent on a guaranteed next day service (even if you select the next day option at checkout). If you do select next day delivery, we will attempt to get your item to you as fast as possible (best endeavours), however we cannot refund carriage if the delivery takes longer.
Long items may take 5-7 working days to deliver to a UK (non remote) address, for standard delivery and 1-4 working days for the next day option.
International: Delivery charges are calculated during the checkout based on your country of delivery. If there is an issue with the amount of delivery charged, then we will contact you prior to dispatch of the order. Due to various factors when dispatching internationally, such as customs clearance, size and weight of the parcel etc, it is difficult to predict the exact delivery time frame. Under certain circumstances, parcels can be held in customs for several weeks and this won't always be displayed in the tracking information. You should allow 2-3 weeks, or more if you are in a remote area and/or there are seasonal challenges, such as Christmas.
Discontinuation of shipping to the European Union
Due to increased complicated legislation and bureaucracy generated by the European Union, it has become unproductive to continue our service to the 27 EU states. Regrettably we have therefore had to discontinue our service to Europe. We hope that one day we may be able to resume our service but for now it has had to stop.
