CONDITIONS AND EXCLUSIONS FROM OUR DELIVERY POLICY

Please make sure someone will be at the delivery address to receive your parcel. Please do not leave instructions for parcels to be left in an alternative location (shed, garage, neighbour etc) as we do not accept liability if you do this and fail to receive your parcel.

We cannot deliver to BFPO addresses or PO boxes.

During periods of poor weather, industrial action or exceptional demand the stated dispatch and delivery timescales may not apply. We will do everything we can to get your parcel to you as soon as possible, but we are unable to offer refunds for delays.

Expected timescale for Standard Delivery is 2-4 working days. However, please be aware that carriers state that, on rare occasions, delivery may take up to 14 working days. Unfortunately, we are unable to pursue claims for lost or delayed deliveries until this time has elapsed.

It is the buyer's responsibility to provide a complete and accurate delivery address. Please check it carefully as address labels are printed automatically as soon as your order is placed. We do not accept responsibility for any items lost or undelivered due to an incorrect or incomplete address being provided.

Couriers will make every effort to successfully deliver your parcel. However, if the address is incomplete, they cannot obtain a signature or your parcel is not collected from the depot within a certain period, it may be returned to sender. Re-delivery charges will then apply.

 

CHANGING OR CANCELLING AN ORDER

 
Decorator's Notebook works with an expert delivery warehouse and our team start getting your parcel ready for dispatch as soon as your order is received by our website. By doing this we can get your items to you quickly and efficiently, but it also means we usually can't change or cancel an order once it has been placed.

 
If you need to amend your order please contact us immediately and we will help if we can. However, if your order has already been processed changes cannot be made. If you wish to order further items you will need to place a new order and pay the relevant delivery charge. For unwanted items you will need to wait for the item to be delivered then follow our returns procedure below.
