Delivery/Order Information

Minimum Order

Deliveries will be subject to varying minimum values depending on areas. Generally, minimum order value will be equal to distance from Arkfw as shown. Orders delivered to locations which are different from their booked-in address at the time of ordering will incur an additional delivery charge.

All courier arrangements have to be made by the customer. At time of collection the courier must know who he/she is collecting on behalf and an itemised list of what is to be collected. Payment must be made before collection. Please note that due to their handling procedures returns from courier companies will not be accepted. All collections have to be signed for. Courier drivers have to follow the same rules as for all customers and are expected to queue in an orderly fashion.

Divisibility
