Delivery Information

How much will my delivery cost?

How long will it take my order to reach me?

We despatch all items as soon as they are available, so parcels may arrive separately. In stock items are delivered on average within 5 days – although we ask you to allow up to 10 days, as some items are despatched to you directly from one of our trusted specialist suppliers.

If you have selected Next-Day Express Delivery and ordered before 6pm, then your order will be delivered during the next working day (Please be aware that an order received before the deadline on a Friday will usually be delivered on the Saturday, but occasionally can arrive on the following Monday. If you place an order after the Friday 6.00pm deadline then your delivery will arrive on the following Tuesday).

If we have your email address, we will keep you informed via email every step of the way, with an order confirmation, despatch, tracking and delivery detail emails.

Can I send an order to a different delivery address?

Yes, you can. Please note that you are charged delivery for each delivery address.

I’m ordering several items: will they arrive at the same time?

Although we hold many products in our warehouses, some of our product range is sent to you directly from our trusted specialist suppliers. We despatch all items as soon as they’re available so parcels may arrive separately.
