Shipping Information
Packing your orders
Orders placed by 8.30am GMT, Monday – Friday excluding bank holidays, are usually dispatched within 1-2 working days.
So, an order placed on Monday lunchtime would typically leave on Tuesday or Wednesday latest. The warehouse does not dispatch on weekends or bank holidays.
For security, hampers are always sent specially via DPD delivery and are excluded from any offers/discounts.
The weight of your parcel is calculated as the total weight of the individual products plus the weight of the outer shipping packaging. We may split orders into more than one parcel.
For UK shipments, orders over 2kg will only be shipped via DPD.
For international orders, the maximum weight we can ship is 2kg. If you want to place a large order and get a custom quote for delivery, please get in touch.
