Delivery Information
You’ve placed an order on Boxed-Up or are thinking about it. Naturally, you’re wondering what you can expect in terms of our packaging delivery terms to you.
All orders are shipped flat-packed for convenient storage and either shipped via courier or bulk freight, dependent on your order size.
Next Working Day Delivery as Standard**
Paid orders received before 3:00 pm Monday to Thursday & 11:30 Friday will be despatched the same day*, using a next working day delivery service. (For Bulk orders please allow 48 hours for your order to be processed). Orders received after this 3:00 pm and 11:30 pm on a Friday cut off, or over the weekend will be despatched the next working day.
Once your order has been collected from us by courier, delivery normally takes between 3 to 5 business days. We ask that you wait 7 days as this allows for any unexpected postal/courier delays. If you have not received your order within 7 days then please contact us via the support form on our website linked here.
For all deliveries to Scotland postcodes please note that you should allow a minimum of 48 hours for your order to arrive. We use a next day delivery service for all orders despatched, but due to the remote locations involved in delivering to Scotland courier services take longer to reach you.
*Please allow a minimum of 3 to 5 business days for your order to be received across November and December. Deliveries to non-mainland locations may take longer due to extended shipping times. We will endeavour to uphold our next day policy, but due to the volume of orders received during these busy months, the orders will be dispatched in the order they are received, which on occasion can mean that your order may take longer to be delivered.
Ordering on Fridays, Weekends & Bank Holidays
Please note that our core business hours are Monday – Friday 7.15 am – 5.30 pm. Weekends and bank holidays are not considered to be working days. Orders received after 11:30 am on a Friday will be picked and packed the following Monday and despatched for Tuesday (except for Bank Holidays).
On Bank Holiday weekends orders are dispatched the following Tuesday on a next working day courier service. Again, please allow 3 to 5 business days for your order to arrive.
Tracking Your Order
We use DHL and they will notify you via text or email once they have received your order, to provide you with an estimated time of delivery. All orders shipped will receive a tracking number unless shipped via Bulk. If for any reason this is not the case please Contact our customer service team, who will be able to help you further.
