Delivery, Returns & Terms & Conditions

Deliveries

What will delivery cost?

Our standard delivery charge is £7.19 for the majority of UK mainland addresses. This is for our standard delivery service which is made within 1-2 working days. This price does not include Saturday delivery – if you require a Saturday delivery please contact us and we can quote you for the additional cost.

We do not ship outside Mainland UK at this time.

Certain UK postcodes unfortunately invoke a surcharge. This includes the Scottish Highlands and Islands (FK17 – 99, G83, IV1-28, IV33-39, PA21-23, PA35-40, PH18-26, PH30-42), and off-shore postcodes (such as the Isle of Wight, Isle of Man, Channel Islands, Scilly Isles, and Northern Ireland).  If your postcode falls within a surcharge area, we will contact you before we dispatch the goods. If you are unsure about the delivery cost for your area, please contact us for further guidance.

Please note that Midland Leisure Supplies Limited do not decide on areas to be surcharge – it is the carriers (and the powers that be who create customs regulations) that determine these prices. We actually subsidise many transportation costs to make the customer’s buying experience the best possible one.

Large orders

Large fridges, glass door ovens and air-conditioning units are all priced according to their destination postcode and weight. Typically, these will have to be delivered on a pallet, which is more expensive than standard delivery. We regularly ship very big orders as palletised loads for extremely economical prices, however. We are happy to quote for this.

Please check the contents of your delivery as soon as it is received for any damage.

Under no circumstances can we accept a claim for loss or damage if the goods are signed for as “In good condition”, “Unexamined” or “Unchecked”. Instead, you must sign the goods as “damaged”.  In the event that the goods initially appeared to be OK, and upon further examination were not, then you must phone us within 24 hours of your delivery.

When will my order be dispatched?

Orders are dispatched on our working days (Monday to Friday) between our working hours (9AM to 5PM). Orders placed overnight we aim to proces the following day but please allow upto 3 working days.

Busy periods

Orders are picked and dispatched strictly in the order they are received. During busy periods, we sometimes have to make our cut-off times earlier than normal, particularly on Mondays.

Occasionally, you can also receive dispatch confirmation automatically from the courier. Unfortunately, this does not guarantee the parcel will be delivered the following day, due to route logistics and transfer between the couriers’ own depots. Please contact us for live availability or with any concerns over when you will receive your goods.

When will my order be delivered?

Deliveries are usually made between 9am – 5pm Monday – Friday, although our couriers may deliver outside of these hours. Typically, a signature will also be required upon receipt. While we can control the processing and departure of your order from our warehouse, the rest is in the hands of our couriers. Deliveries can understandably be affected by road conditions and adverse weather, amongst many other unforeseen issues.

Do I need to be in to receive my order?

You can request to have your order left with a neighbour. If you leave a note at your address such as “Round the back of the house” or “On front porch”, this is at your own risk – we cannot take responsibility for goods that are subsequently stolen or found to be damaged.

Booking fitters and installers prior to delivery

Customers booking engineers to fit equipment based on the assumption that goods will arrive undamaged/missing parts and on the expected delivery day do so at their own risk. We cannot be held liable for any costs incurred.

Can I have my order delivered to an alternate address?

Yes, you can. You’ll notice when you place an order that you can enter separate billing and delivery addresses. It is essential that the postcode is provided together with a phone number for the delivery address to ensure there is no delay.

If you request a change of delivery address after placing an order then an additional charge of £15 will be levied (this is the courier’s re-direct charge).

Pallet Deliveries

Please note pallet deliveries are classed as “doorstep” deliveries. Drivers are not usually insured or able to assist with anything further than the initial delivery, this includes but is not limited to:

– Moving your pallet into your property
– Moving your pallet across obstacles including stairs, walls, and doors.
– Removing your product from the pallet itself
– Taking away and disposing of the pallet

If you should have any access or assistance requirements, please inform us in advance of placing your order. We can make drivers aware however we are unable to guarantee any assistance can be offered.
