ECO POLICY

Our planet is precious, so we take our impact on it seriously. That’s why your online orders will be delivered in oxo-biodegradable or compostable bags, which will decompose within 3-24 months and therefore are not suitable for recycling. Large packages may be delivered in cardboard boxes.

DELIVERY FAQs

Can I change or edit my order?

To change your order or edit the deliver address, please contact us. Changes are only possible up until the time of dispatch when you will receive a dispatch confirmation email.

Can I cancel my order?

To cancel you order please contact us. Orders cannot be cancelled after dispatch. Click and Collect orders may be cancelled up to 10 days after the order is placed as long as they have not been collected.

Can I track my order?

Next Working Day and International Express orders can be tracked and email notification will be sent with regards to how this can be done. All other orders can also be tracked, please email us your order number for your tracking number. 

What happens to deliveries if I'm not at home?

From October 2022, if there is no recipient in to accept your parcel, Royal Mail may choose to deliver it to a Safeplace location at the address, if they deem the location to be suitable (even if you have not told Royal Mail of your chosen Safeplace). In these cases, they will also leave a “Something For You” card explaining where the parcel is located. If they are unable to find a suitable Safeplace and cannot deliver to a neighbour, they will return your parcel to the local Royal Mail Customer Service Point and leave a “Something For You” card at the address.

DHL will send you an email before delivering, informing you when the parcel is out for delivery. This email will give you the option to set up a Safeplace in the event that there is no recipient to accept the parcel.

Where do you deliver to?

Virtually everywhere. If your country is not listed at checkout please contact us.

Delivery to Russia

Currently, goods sent from a business in the UK to a residential address in Russia will be rejected by Russian customs. We can deliver, via DHL, to any business address in Russia but no residential addresses.

Delivery to China

Goods sent from a business in the UK to China will be rejected by Chinese customs if the value is over £100. Therefore we can only accept orders up to £100 in value (excluding postage charges). If you wish to order more items we encourage you to place separate orders.

Brooks Reserved Territory

In accordance with the Brooks distribution policy we are not permitted to sell Brooks products outside of their “Reserved Territory” which comprises the United Kingdom of Great Britain (England, Wales, Scotland) and Northern Ireland. Any orders for Brooks products with a delivery address outside of these areas will be cancelled and all payments refunded.
