Placing your order online

How to Place an Order

Selecting your Items

To place an order, browse through our categories and select which products you require. If the product is a single item without any size options, then click 'add to cart' and this item will appear in your shopping cart. If the product requires you to select a specific size, then click on the 'select' button and choose the necessary size from the 'available options' list. Once you have chosen the size, click 'add to cart' and the item will appear in your shopping cart.

Shopping Cart

When you have finished shopping, your shopping cart will contain all the items you have selected to buy. If you wish to remove any items from your shopping cart, tick the 'remove' box on the left-hand side of the item. Once the necessary boxes have been ticked click 'update' and this will update your shopping cart. If you have registered to be a Loyalty Customer you can use any accumulated points from previous orders here. If you would like to know an estimate for the shipping cost, enter your post code in the drop down box and it will give you the delivery options available to you. When you are finished with your shopping cart click 'proceed to checkout' to proceed to the next stage.

Delivery Information

To ensure you receive your goods on time we have included as much information as possible on the delivery section of the ordering process. Select the appropiate shipping method available to you. If you are not going to be in at the time of delivery there are two options available to you.

• Different Shipping Address − There is an option to have your order delivered to an alternative address where someone will be available to collect it. This can be a work address or a family friend etc. Clicking on the 'change address' icon will allow you to do this.
• Rearrange delivery − If the courier attempts to deliver your parcel and no one is home, a card will be posted through your letterbox. Parcelforce will attempt to deliver a maximum of three times. After this you will be required to collect your parcel from the depot. You may be able to contact the number shown on the failed delivery card and rearrange a delivery day suited to your availability.

There is also the option to receive a pre-delivery notification. To receive these, please select an option from the drop down box and provide either a mobile number or email address. Our courier Parcelforce will then contact you with the delivery details. 

If you have any special instructions relating to your order, these can be placed in the comments box at the bottom of the page.
