Delivery Policy

Lasted Updated 02/01/2024


We understand that waiting for your online order all day can be frustrating. That’s why we have different delivery options to make it convenient for you to get your order and save your time.

You will get a tracking number and updates when your order is sent by our courier partners (DPD or Royal Mail).

Your order can arrive anytime, usually between 7:30 am to 7:30 pm and you may need to sign for it. When your order is sent, you will receive a text or email of when your parcel will arrive, which gives you a chance to change the delivery time or address. You may also get an expected delivery time. If you miss your delivery, you will find a card telling you how to collect it.

PLEASE NOTE: The delivery times we give are for working days only, not weekends. Unless you choose Saturday delivery. For example, if you order on Friday and choose Next Working Day, your order will come on Monday (not counting bank holidays). We are sorry, but we can’t deliver on a bank holiday. Please wait for your delivery on the next working day in that case.

Order Processing

We aim to process all orders within 1-2 working days, excluding weekends and bank holidays. Orders received after 3pm will be processed the next working day. If there is a delay in processing your order, we will notify you by email or phone.
