Delivery & Returns
Most of our deliveries are made using the services of Royal Mail.
We have found Royal Mail to be the most cost effective method for customers in delivering their orders in a timely and safe manner. We work very closely with Royal Mail and have our own business account manager that we can contact to address any delivery matters or problems which may arise.
Postal Charges
Our postal charges are aligned with the Royal Mail standard published postal pricing chart based upon the weight of our product. We use both 1st and 2nd class delivery options dependant upon the total weight of your order. We add on top of this the cost price of the packaging materials etc in order to ensure your order reaches you in top condition.
If you order several items we will combine the total weight of your order and again we will only charge you in accordance with the standard Royal Mail pricing chart plus the cost price of packaging materials used.
