TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Deliveries
Orders will be shipped via our courier to UK addresses, we will use the information provided on your sales form to make delivery. Please make sure this information is correct before entering.
All Deliveries on our standard service will be made Monday-Friday, 8am to 5pm. (Except Bank Holidays & Christmas week) and within mainland UK. Please note due to adverse weather conditions we cannot guarantee 2-3 days delivery to some parts of the UK. Friday sales shall be dispatched the following working day unless stated otherwise and are subject to stock availability and location.
Please note we are unable to deliver to certain address types including PO BOX addresses.
All deliveries require a signature - the law says that an adult must be present for all alcohol deliveries.
For York deliveries, we may choose to personally hand deliver your parcel (lucky you, you may get to meet the Lord himself).
Some Larger, heavy weight orders cannot be guaranteed for a Next Working Day delivery due to packaging and other restraints.
If it is more convenient for you to have your goods delivered to an address other than the cardholder address, then please state clearly at the time of order the delivery address required.
Once we have dispatched your order, if you supply your mobile number, Parcelforce will issue a text to advise you of your tracking number and delivery details. Using the link on the text we recommend you check at regular intervals to view the status of your delivery to avoid any potential redelivery costs. A signature is required for all deliveries.
In the event that a delivery is attempted on the scheduled day and there is no one available to receive and sign for the consignment, the courier will leave a card. This card will offer you alternative means by which to receive your delivery. It is vitally important that you quickly contact the delivery depot to re-arrange a time that is suitable to you.
If you arrange for a re-delivery at a time convenient and if the re-delivery is made at the scheduled time and there is no-one to receive and sign for the consignment then you may be required to pay for the cost of the re-delivery attempt. The undelivered consignment will be held at your local depot for a further 3 days, but if the depot is not contacted within this time frame the consignment will be sent back to us and you may incur further charges for this delivery back to our store.
If there are any delays we will do our best to let you know.
