PLEASE NOTE:

  • Delivery surcharges are per parcel
  • No deliveries will be made on Bank Holidays.
  • Fresh Food can only be delivered to mainland UK locations on a Tuesday through to Saturday (no Monday or Sunday deliveries) as we cannot guarantee to our satisfaction that they will remain chilled during transit over the weekend. Please ensure that the recipient is available to receive their gift as we cannot be responsible for these products if we are unable to complete first time delivery. All hampers containing fresh food must be signed for upon delivery. We are unable to offer product or delivery refunds for failed fresh food deliveries that are due to the recipient not being at home or due to us having been provided with an incorrect delivery address. All fresh food needs to be opened and refrigerate upon immediate receipt of delivery to ensure that the contents remain safe to consume.
  • Letterbox Gifts are delivered using Evri , so we cannot guarantee a precise delivery date for these gifts.

HOW LONG DOES DELIVERY TAKE AND WHAT DO YOU CHARGE FOR OUT OF AREA DELIVERIES?

WHAT IF MY GOODS HAVE BEEN DAMAGED IN TRANSIT OR LOST?

If your recipient receives a hamper that has been damaged in transit we guarantee to replace the goods as long as we are informed within 48 hours of delivery.

If the damaged goods are refused by the recipient the carrier will automatically return them to us.

If the damage is not immediately evident the recipient should retain the goods for inspection and returned at our expense if necessary.

We will replace goods lost in transit provided that we are notified within 28 days of the required delivery date.

WHAT HAPPENS IF MY RECIPIENT ISN’T IN WHEN DELIVERY IS ATTEMPTED?

If the recipient is not present to receive a parcel, the carrier will leave a card with contact details so that redelivery or collection can be arranged at a convenient time. If the carrier doesn’t receive a response to the card, they will return the gift to us after 4-5 working days or may try to redeliver.

Our carriers are required to notify us of any parcels that are not delivered so that we can try to resolve the issue before the parcel is returned.

If the carrier for your particular parcel / location is Parcelforce, the parcel may be taken to a local post office so that your recipient may collect in person. Again, the parcel will be returned to us after a period of time if the recipient fails to respond to the card and collect the parcel from the designated post office.

Unfortunately, we are unable to pass on door codes to the carriers. If you’re recipient address is located at a property where a code is required, we suggest you arrange for either the recipient to be in on the day of delivery, or send to an alternative address.

WILL THE CARRIER LEAVE THE HAMPER IN A SAFE PLACE IF THE RECIPIENT ISN’T THERE?

Although we prefer all our hampers to be signed for upon receipt, during the very busy Christmas period we do instruct our delivery companies to leave parcels in a safe and dry location and put a card through the door to say where the parcel has been left if the recipient is not available to receive it. We consider this to be in the best interests of the recipient.

CAN I ARRANGE FOR THE HAMPER TO BE REDELIVERED TO A DIFFERENT ADDRESS?

Yes. If you need the parcel to be redelivered to a different address then we can arrange this with the carrier. Please note that this may incur an extra charge. Please contact us on 01747 851515 as soon as possible if you would like to change the delivery address.

DO YOU ALWAYS DELIVER HAMPERS ON TIME?

We do our absolute utmost to deliver each and every hamper and gift on time but sometimes this final link in the chain doesn’t quite match up to our incredibly high standards. This could be for a number of reasons including address accuracy, mis-sorting at delivery hubs and, of course, occasionally adverse weather conditions can also clog up delivery networks.

HOW CAN I TRACK MY HAMPER DELIVERY?

If you place your order online you can track your order by logging in and clicking ‘My Orders’. If you placed your order via our call centre, we will be happy to track your order upon request.

CAN I SEND A HAMPER OVERSEAS?

We regret that deliveries outside England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland cannot be achieved for Christmas 2023, due to changes in legislation following Brexit.

HOW CAN I CHECK MY ORDER HAS BEEN DESPATCHED?

If you ordered via our website you can simply log into ‘My Account’ on our website to view your order status, we will also send you an email on the day that the parcel leaves us to confirm despatch.

If you placed your order via the telephone, or indeed on the website and require further information, please call our team on 01747 851515 and we will be happy to track your order.

DO YOU OFFER ANY DELIVERY DISCOUNTS?

Yes! We can make savings with our carrier when sending more than one item to the same domestic address, so we pass these savings on to you! 

We offer tiered delivery discounts for 2 or more hampers being delivered to the same UK address, on the same day.

If you purchase via our website your discount will be automatically calculated at the checkout.
If you place your order over the phone or via email, our friendly team will calculate the discount for you. Unfortunately we cannot offer delivery discounts on hampers being delivered outside the UK.
