FAQ's |
FAQ's Yes, you can choose to change the delivery address during the checkout process. This is especially helpful if you know you are not going to be at home to sign for the delivery, then you can specify an alternative address such as a work address, or if it is for a gift it can be sent straight to the recipient! Do I need to be there to sign for my delivery? Yes if the item is larger - we use FedEx as our secure courier delivery service and you must specify an address where someone will be present to sign for the delivery. If you know you will not be at home, please use the “change delivery address” option during checkout which enables you to have your parcel delivered to a neighbour, work or business address. FedEx should re-attempt delivery but should there be several failed attempts and the parcel is returned to us. Smaller items are sent on a tracked service with the Royal Mail - this services allows parcels to be left in a safe place - let us know if you have a safe place you'd like the postman to leave the parcel.
