Is VAT included in your pricing?

As standard, all of the prices on our website are excluding VAT. However, if you would like to view our products with VAT added on, click the button at the top of the page that says “VAT included”. This should automatically update our prices.

What is your delivery charge?

Orders that are over £150 + VAT and are being delivered to a Mainland UK address are carriage paid. The delivery charge for orders below £150 + VAT that are being delivered to a Mainland UK address is £7.25 + VAT.

For orders of any value being delivered to a non Mainland UK address, such as Isle of Wight, Isle of Man, Northern Island, Eire, Jersey or Guernsey, delivery rates will depend on the weight and size of the item. As a guide, items that weight less than 25kg and are not more than 1m x 0.5m x 0.5m the delivery charge would be £15 + VAT.

We are able to ship items to destinations that fall outside of this geographical area, such as Europe and the USA, if you would like a price then please provide details and we will be happy to provide a quote accordingly.

How long will my order take to arrive?

Orders are usually shipped within one working day of our receiving payment or agreeing credit terms. Dispatch usually occurs a day later, on a standard delivery service. This results in the vast majority of products being received by our customers within 3 to 5 working days.

Orders received before 12 noon generally get processed the same day. All goods will be delivered within the statutory performance period of 30 days (From the date of payment). We will endeavour to contact you if there is going to be a delay with the delivery of your order.

It's worth nothing that with our fantastic offsite warehouse facilities our core range is nearly always available for next day delivery, so if you need something quick - give us a call, if we can make it happen then we will.

What methods of payment do you allow?

You have 3 ways to pay for your items.

1) You can pay directly using your debit or credit card

2) You can choose to pay through PayPal instead, if you prefer

3) For those of you that would rather speak to a person, you can call and a member of the team would be happy to take you through the process

4) Or maybe you need to present your accounts department with a Pro-Forma so they can pay by cheque, BACS or internet transfer

5) For those of you who will be trading with us on a more regular basis we offer 30 day credit terms

We like to think that our checkout process is pretty intuitive, and we have clearly signposted where you can choose your payment options. If you disagree - let us know.

What percentage VAT do I pay on my items?

We don’t have any choice; we always charge the current legal rate of VAT on our items. There is a reduction on some sanitary products, but in the main it’s the standard UK rate.

If you are a registered charity, we must see a VAT exemption certificate before we can process an order without charging VAT. If you can’t provide a copy of a current VAT exemption certificate – we are bound by law to charge VAT. All is not lost though – you can claim it back from your end. 

Orders being shipped abroad are also VAT exempt; we just have to be able to prove to HMRC that the goods are being shipped overseas.

What happens if I miss a delivery?

If you miss a delivery, it will be re-attempted the next day and a note will be left. This note contains the phone number you can call to agree a new delivery date. 

If you do not receive a note or have not agreed a new date, three delivery attempts will normally be made.
