How Your Order Is Delivered
Deliveries are made ‘kerbside’. Handling the goods is the responsibility of the recipient of the goods. When making a large order we advise you to plan ahead and arrange a second pair of hands to help if you’re receiving lots of boxes, especially if your order is for a room not on the ground floor. Please note: This applies to flats, tower blocks, high rises, etc.

Missing Items/Incorrect Items
If for any reason your order hasn’t arrived within 2-5 working days, please contact us straight away. If after a couple of days, your order has still not reached you, we will investigate and, if necessary, send you some new items to replace the ones you haven’t received. If your delivery is missing items or the items are incorrect then this must be noted with the delivery driver and reported to us within 48 hours of delivery.

Failed Deliveries

If your order arrives as arranged but we’re unable to deliver because there’s nobody home, there’s inadequate help available, the goods are refused, or the order is cancelled whilst in transit (goods are in transit 24 hours before the chosen delivery date) you will be liable for any additional costs incurred for the goods being returned.

Delivery Restrictions
