Dispatch & Delivery
When are orders dispatched?
We endeavour to dispatch all orders received before 2pm Monday-Saturday (excl. Bank Holidays).
During peak seasons, for example: Black Friday, and Christmas, there can be delays in shipping with a higher volume of orders needing to be processed. Of course, this is not ideal for anyone, and we work hard to make sure all orders are processed as quickly as possible. Express orders do get priority if we are delayed in shipping orders.
IF THERE ARE ANY DELAYS IN DISPATCHING ORDERS, THIS IS ALWAYS STATED AT THE TOP OF THE WEBSITE.
If you have placed an order that contains both a pre-order item and an in-stock item, you should expect your order to be dispatched when all items are readily available. If you wish to receive items as quickly as possible, please place separate orders.
Express & Saturday
Express Courier
Express orders will be dispatched same-day if received before 2pm Monday-Friday (excl. Bank Holidays).
After 2pm, orders will be dispatched the next working day.
Saturday Courier
Saturday Courier orders are dispatched on a Friday. They will only be delivered on a Saturday.
Orders must be received before 2pm Friday to be dispatched for Saturday delivery.
Bank Holidays
Bank Holiday
Please note that our office is closed on Bank Holidays. While our warehouse is open, there are limited staff during the Bank Holiday's, and none of our courier partners collect parcels from us, or deliver on Bank Holidays.
Local Bank Holidays and closures may also affect your delivery. For example, 2nd January is a Bank Holiday in Scotland, but not in England.
Holiday Season
Please take note of last shipping dates for the holiday season provided by our courier partners.
As always, order as soon as possible to avoid any unforeseen circumstances - local delays, adverse weather, etc.
