Delivery Times
Delivery times vary, depending on the service you have chosen (see above).
Please make sure a mobile telephone number is entered on registration, this will aid in communication for your delivery. Certain couriers will send you a text message with an estimated delivery time (free of charge).
You can expect deliveries to arrive any time between 7am – 7pm. Unfortunately the delivery drivers are unable to call customers ahead of delivery, as due to the Road Vehicles (Construction & Use) (Amendment No. 4) Regulations 2003, our couriers no longer issue their drivers with mobile telephones.
Made a Mistake?
If you have made a mistake on your order or wish to amend or cancel, you must ring our Customer Service team on 01934 635260 during working hours as soon as possible. We cannot accept emails as a method of contact for these types of enquiries due to the very quick dispatch times we operate on.
Due to our delivery courier’s terms and conditions, we cannot change orders or addresses once they have left our premises.
Secure Deliveries
All our bean bags are sent via courier and require a signature as proof of delivery. This is to ensure safe, trackable orders.
If you are not in during the day, why not get your item delivered to your work address? We accept alternative delivery addresses and actually prefer to deliver to business addresses where someone is available to sign for your item.
Alternatively, we give you the opportunity in the checkout process to enter a note to the courier to leave the parcel with your neighbour, porch or garden shed (etc.). However, please note any delivery instructions are at your own risk.
Missed Deliveries
If you miss your delivery real-time tracking will confirm this and will give contact details/instructions for how to reschedule or arrange collection of the order from your local depot.
If you have chosen Standard Free Delivery, you CANNOT arrange a re-delivery on a Saturday.
After 3 failed delivery attempts, your items will be returned to our warehouse. If an item is sent back to us as a result of failed delivery, this will incur a delivery charge to you of a minimum of £25 in order to cover the cost of return and re-delivery.
If an item is returned to us as a result of failed delivery, we reserve the right to cancel your order and refund the cost of the order, minus £25 to cover the cost of return and administration.
Damaged Deliveries
