Shipping
Delivery is based upon delivery destination, the total order’s weight, and its size. Due to the dimensions of some of our products, a relatively light item such as a large textile storage box can still attract a higher delivery cost. Items over 1 metre in length can also attract a higher delivery rate. The shopping cart will calculate your delivery costs automatically, just pop your items in the basket and input your address details. Please see below for some explanation on how our shipping is calculated.
Current service Status
- Current order processing time approximately 3-5 working days from order to despatch.
- Planned strikes by Royal Mail may affect delivery times for Royal Mail 1st & 2nd Class despatches. Parcel delivery services may also be delayed as a result of high traffic volumes out of our control.
