Delivery Schedule

All orders placed online during the working week, are attended to immediately and in most cases, if received by 1pm, are despatched the same day. Occasionally there may be delays, due to the handmade nature of some of our products. If normal despatch is delayed for any reason, we will keep you informed via the email address or telephone number you supply. Therefore please ensure these are entered correctly on your order.

The exception to our normal delivery schedule is the Corby trouser press range, orders for which are fulfilled free of charge, direct from the manufacturer. Delivery usually takes place within 2 weeks of ordering.

Please note:
A signature will be required on the majority of parcels to ensure safe delivery of your order.


UK DELIVERY

Within mainland UK, we use Royal Mail First Class delivery for inexpensive items at a cost of £2. The majority of our UK deliveries are handled by Interlink Couriers, who offer a 1-2 business day service for a flat fee of £3.50. We also understand that sometimes our customers need their purchase urgently and for those occasions we still offer Royal Mail Special Delivery as an option at the checkout phase. Special Delivery is charged at cost by weight, starting from £4.95 and a delivery attempt is made by 1pm on the next business day. We are unable to offer Saturday deliveries.
