Delivery and Postage

DISPATCH & DELIVERY UPDATE

Due to high order volumes, you may experience delays of up to 3 days in your order being dispatched. Our warehouse team are working around the clock, 7 days a week to dispatch as many orders on time as possible.

We are also currently seeing delays of up to 5 working days with both DPD and Royal Mail delivery methods. 

Royal Mail: Due to strike action and increased volumes Royal Mail are seeing prolonged delays in their mailing centres. We are working closely with our local Delivery Office  and Mail Centre  to ensure that all of our parcels are collected on time, even on strike days. Please allow up to 5 working days from dispatch for your order to be delivered. 

DPD: As a result of increased volumes and weather conditions in the UK, DPD are seeing increasing delays in some areas of the country. Please allow up to 5 working days for delivery - currently their 'Next Day' service is not guaranteed.
