Shipping

At our online store, we strive to provide you with the best possible shopping experience. We understand that receiving your order in a timely manner is important to you, which is why we work hard to process and ship your items as quickly as possible. We aim to dispatch all UK orders same day if the order is received before 3pm, this however is not possible for international orders due to the shipping requirements (see international shipping below).

However, due to the nature of our products and the demand we experience, we kindly ask that you allow 3-5 working days for your glass/container order to be processed and shipped. This timeframe ensures that our team has enough time to carefully package and prepare your items for shipping, while also allowing for any unexpected delays that may occur.

For all glass orders, custom products, made products please allow 3-5 working days for production and the QC process. Any items we decided are too heavy or too many these will be shipped via pallet on a 48hour (2 working days) service. Should you need anything quicker please contact us when placing the order and we will provide a quote for a faster shipping service which the customer would be required to pay. 

We appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter, as it allows us to maintain our high standards of quality and customer service. Rest assured, we will do everything we can to get your order to you as soon as possible.

If you have any questions or concerns about your order, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer service team. We are always happy to assist you in any way we can.

Thank you for choosing our store for your shopping needs, and we look forward to serving you with the highest quality products and customer service.

All orders are processed Monday- Friday. We endeavour to dispatch within two working days, although during busy times this might increase. Royal mail second class takes 3-5 working days to arrive, though in busier seasons they say to allow up to 10 working days.

Economy 

Orders with a total weight of under 2kg are shipped by Royal Mail Second Class post and all others by courier. Royal Mail tends to take 3 – 5 working days to arrive. If you are likely to be out when the delivery arrives, please leave a comment saying where the package can be left on your premises (eg “behind the garden gate” or” with neighbour”). This only applies to orders than can not fit through a letter box. If they are unable to deliver the order will be left in a safe place at their discretion or returned to the depot for a 2nd attempted delivery. If this is also unsuccessful it will be returned to us at a cost which will be deducted from the order value as well as the original shipping price.

If you need your order quickly, we can send your package by either first class post or DPD next available working day delivery (we will use our own discretion which courier service to use to ensure minimal delays, if you have a preference please add this comment when ordering).

Free Postage 

Where we offer Free Delivery (UK mainland*) on a product**, this will be by Economy carrier and applies to that product only unless otherwise stated, this can exclude orders including wax. In other words, if you order other products in the same order, they can attract their usual delivery charge, such as wax. Free delivery is for orders that are over £75 excluding VAT and delivery. Free delivery is to what our courier considers UK mainland only. 

If you are charged shipping for your order and you have spent over £75 before VAT and postage are charged then we will refund you the cost of the shipping. If your order includes wax but the rest of the value of your order exceeds £75 (before VAT and postage) we will of course refund the shipping cost proportionately. If you have any queries please just get in touch.  

European Orders

The postage calculator on this website handles most European countries plus several outside. If it does not give you an option to your country, then please contact us regarding the cost. 

Note, it is not possible to cover every cost scenario for international shipping. We reserve the right to refuse to ship at the price shown on the system if it is uneconomic or there is an error. If you suspect an error, please contact us and we will resolve it. 

Unless otherwise stated in the product description, we aim to dispatch all orders within two working days. We will keep you fully up to date with your order’s progress by email.
