Delivery terms

Generally, orders placed online are covered by ‘distance selling regulations’. This means you will have the right to return shipments you are not happy with. Our Chilled shipments are exempt from these regulations, which is explained below:

In our Terms and Conditions, you must accept the following reasonable points:

  1. You have invited us to send chilled goods to you at your request, in the knowledge of the possibility that the goods may be delayed in transit and/or may travel in conditions where they are not chilled as recommended by the manufacturer.
  2. You accept that the products are safe for periods of time, even when not chilled below 8 degrees.
  3. You accept that we endeavor to send parcels with chilled items as fast as possible, but that you have a responsibility to provide an accurate address for delivery and to be available or to arrange to have someone available to take the parcel in for you and place chilled items in a refrigerator. You indemnify us against any liability for the products in cases where they cannot be delivered by errors or omissions in the delivery information you provide to us or if a driver is unable to leave the parcel at the address you have provided regardless of ‘no signature required’ stickers or messages to leave without signatures’.
  4. You agree that you have a responsibility to inspect your products for signs that they may be unfit for consumption and report any concerns within 24hrs.

You accept that for shipping of chilled goods, our couriers will NOT return parcels to depot or attempt re delivery. They are authorized to leave chilled packages even if no one is there to accept delivery. They will leave this in as ‘safe’ a place as possible, but if you live in flats or any house that does not have a secluded place for the parcel to be left, you accept that it will be left at your front door in plain view of passers-by. We accept no responsibility for parcels which go missing due to this. Our couriers will take a photo of any parcels left in a ‘safe place’. We highly recommend that you ensure someone will be there to accept delivery or use one of the in-flight APC options that become available when your parcel is in transit, i.e. deliver to a neighbor

Returns

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the chilled items, we are unable to except returns except in circumstances where the item is faulty, received wrong item or was not as described.   

All items are kept refrigerated at our warehouse and packed with care ready for delivery using suitable special frozen gel pads, that can keep products chilled at less than 8 degrees for over 48 hours.
