If you sign for a delivery which you find at a later date is damaged, our carriers WILL NOT accept liability and you may be charged for the damaged items if we cannot claim from the carriers, In this case a delivery charge for replacement items WILL be made.

If you live in a rural area or you generally have difficulty with home deliveries, you can always specify your place of work to receive your delivery. If you know that there is restricted access for deliveries, please inform us, so that we can pass these restrictions on to our Carrier.
