Pallet Delivery
For some orders, it’s safer and more economical to ship via pallet. If this applies to your order, our team will confirm at the time of purchase.
- Delivery Time: Usually next working day (1–2 days in some areas).
- Equipment: Tail-lift and pump truck used to offload safely.
- Tracking: Due to the way that pallets are dispatched and delivered there is no point-by-point tracking but we do provide proof of delivery if required.
- Timing: Specific delivery times cannot be guaranteed.
- Free Delivery: For larger palletised orders, we cover the cost of a standard Mainland pallet delivery. In some remote or higher-cost delivery zones, where pallet charges exceed our standard rates, the site will charge the amount that exceeds our standard pallet delivery amount.

International Deliveries
We ship worldwide where viable with our courier partners.

- If you request a Safe Place, responsibility transfers once the courier confirms delivery.
- During peak seasons, dispatch and delivery times may extend due to high order volumes.
