Shipping Costs

We try to offer the best value shipping and handling charges for the wide range of goods we offer.
Shipping cost are calculated by weight as this offers the best value for the smaller items.
We recycle as much supplier packaging as we can to keep your packaging costs down.
Our customers like to receive items as soon as possible so our default service for smaller items is Royal Mail, First Class recorded.
For larger and heavier items our shipping partner Interlink24 has a next day service up to 25kg.
