Shipping and Delivery Policy
General Information
We currently ship our orders in cardboard mailing boxes so it is best if someone is in to receive the order however our two smallest postal boxes are now letter box sized.
UK orders are through Royal Mail on a 1st class system our cut of point to delivery and dispatch is 12pm.
We are here to help if your order goes missing or is delayed, and we will contact you if your parcel is returned to us to arrange a reship.
Letterbox sized mailing boxes
If you order 1 - 2 x 250 gram bags of coffee your order should now fit through a UK standard sized letterbox which measures 254mm x 38mm.
We sadly cannot guarantee each delivery however it should really reduce the trips to the sorting office.
Please find the dimensions of our outer packaging here.
1x 250 gram = 168mm x 175mm x 30mm
2x 250g gram = 335mm x 175mm x 30mm
3 or more 250 gram = 335mm x 175mm x 30mm (will not fit)
* any brewing equipment added and your parcel will always be shipped in the largest sized box.
DPD and UPS require a signature so they will NOT pot through the letterbox.
