SHIPPING / DELIVERY

We use 3 different delivery methods: DPD, Royal Mail Tracked 24 ®, and Royal Mail 1st Class. Here’s a bit of info on all 3:

 

DPD: We offer DPD’s next working day service as a delivery option for all our products. We’ve found DPD to be the most reliable and the best way of getting your print work to you safely.

The DPD option is a tracked and signed for delivery service. This means that in most circumstances, you will be able to keep an eye on your parcel throughout the delivery process. You will receive tracking information via email once your order has been dispatched from our print house. Please be aware that estimated times of arrival are not available until the day of delivery. Please also pay close attention to the delivery information that is supplied to you by email.

We use DPD’s next day delivery service, meaning your order will arrive the working day that follows dispatch from our print house. For example, if we dispatch an order on Thursday, then – all things being well – it will be out for delivery on Friday*.
The cost for the DPD Tracked service is £5.95 (inclusive of VAT). This is added to your order during the checkout process.

 

Royal Mail Tracked 24®: If your order is light enough in weight, then you will automatically be offered Royal Mail’s Tracked 24® service during checkout, alongside DPD option above.

Tracked 24® is a tracked but not signed-for service. In other words, you do not have to be at your address for delivery to take place (in most instances).

As with DPD above, you will receive tracking information once your parcel has been dispatched from our print house. This delivery service also operates on a 24-hour turnaround (i.e. next day), Monday to Saturday.

Please also pay close attention to the delivery information that is supplied to you by email. Information on Royal Mail’s missed delivery process can be found here. And more information on Royal Mails’ terms and conditions for this service can be found here.

The cost for Royal Mail’s Tracked 24® service is £3.90.

 

Royal Mail 1st Class: This service is used for all our sample orders. Please note that this is a fully untracked delivery service. Royal Mail ‘aims’ to deliver these items on the next working day, though please note that this can be delayed substantially during peak times such as Valentines, Black Friday/Cyber Monday, and Christmas.

We do not charge for the delivery of samples.

 

*Customers in the Scottish Highlands or off the UK Mainland (including Northern Ireland, need to factor in 1-2 additional days for both DPD and Royal Mail to deliver. Unfortunately, this is outside of our control

 

N.B. When deciding which address to use for delivery of your print work, we strongly recommend using an address that will have someone in during the likely day of delivery. For example, we recommend you use a business address, office address, or your place of work if possible.
