Shipping and Delivery
What happens when we receive an order
When we receive an order on Monday-Friday, we send the order through to picking. We always aim to dispatch orders as quickly as we can, but due to unprecedented demand on our products and a very high number of orders, we currently send orders out within 3-5 working days after they have been placed on our website. We work hard to get as many orders as possible in progress but during this busy period there might be a slight delay.
Please note, once a parcel has been added to the packing cage we are unable to amend or cancel the order. If you need to add to your web order after it has already been processed, we will need to raise and take payment for a separate order.
