Important Delivery Information
- Order Processing: Orders placed before 12 PM on dispatch days will be attempted to be processed and dispatched the same day, but may require processing the following day. Orders placed after 12 PM will be processed the following dispatch day.
- Delivery Attempts: If you are not at home when the delivery is attempted, Royal Mail may leave a card with instructions on how to collect your parcel or arrange a redelivery.
- Perishable Goods: Given the perishable nature of our products, please ensure someone is available to receive the parcel. We recommend having your order delivered to a work address or an alternative location where someone can accept it.
- Packaging: Our packaging is designed to keep our products at the appropriate temperature for at least 48 hours. Our products are vacuum–sealed, then packed in an insulated box along with gel ice packs. They can be disposed of in normal household rubbish, or safely re-used in your cool-box or hamper. A couple of hours in the freezer will prepare it and it can be used repeatedly.
- Tracking: You will receive a tracking number via email once your order has been dispatched, allowing you to monitor its progress.
