Important Delivery Information

Please Note

  • Delivery is to the nearest and safest point to your property

Delivery Vehicle

  • Most deliveries made via Pallex Pallet Network
  • Typically uses a 17-ton vehicle (approx. 13m long) with tail-lift and pallet truck
  • If access is restricted (sharp bends, narrow roads, etc.), please inform us when ordering—alternative arrangements may be possible

Damaged Delivery

Delays

  • We strive to honour arranged delivery dates, but cannot be held responsible for delays beyond our control (e.g. vehicle breakdowns, punctures, acts of God)
  • We will attempt to contact you if there are delays, but this may not always be possible
  • Do not book contractors or tilers for the delivery date—we are not responsible for costs if your delivery is delayed
