- Christmas Delivery -

Our last dispatch day before Christmas for all standard orders was Wednesday 22nd December. All orders placed after Tuesday 21st December may not have been despatched until Wednesday 29th December, when normal service will resumed.

For guaranteed UK mainland and local delivery before Christmas Day for standard items, the last ordering date was midday Friday 17th December. For heavy items, the last ordering date was Friday 10th December to secure delivery before Christmas Day. Dropship and Made to Order items are subject to individual lead times, so we could not guarantee delivery prior to Christmas for these items. Gift card delivery was guaranteed for orders placed before Tuesday 21st December. Please call 01993823117 for up to date advice and delivery information.

Delivery Charges

Standard Delivery

Standard delivery charges apply to smaller items, parcels and packages. The majority of our products can be delivered to most UK mainland postcodes, subject to reasonable access criteria.

Most local deliveries (within 30 miles of Burford) are carried out by our own team using Burford Garden Company vans. Deliveries further afield are generally made by one of our approved courier services, or via Royal Mail.

3–5 Working Day Service:*

£7.95. Surcharges may apply for Highlands, islands and Northern Ireland.**

Burford Store Gift Card Delivery:

£7.95 per delivery address. We appreciate this may appear expensive, but please note this charge is to meet the cost of Royal Mail Special Guaranteed Delivery charges. Gift Cards are classified as cash by Royal Mail and therefore would not be covered by Royal Mail's standard 'Signed For' service.

However, for Gift Cards of a value of £100 and over, we waive this charge for you and delivery is free.

Purchases may be delivered to any UK mainland address (with the exception of the Scottish Highlands and Islands, the Isles of Scilly, Northern Ireland and the Isle of Wight), providing the card holder supplies their registered home address. Purchases made on the phone may only be delivered to a residential address other than the registered card holder's address if you have previously purchased from us and a landline telephone number is supplied. Please note that card holder details are checked securely by SagePay.

Local Delivery

£25.00 per delivery.

Deliveries further than 30 miles from Burford Garden Company:

£50.00 per delivery. Surcharges may apply for Highlands, islands and Northern Ireland.**

Please note this is a subsidised delivery charge offered on the basis of a successful delivery on the date agreed for your items. This charge is non-refundable if we cannot successfully deliver your purchases, please see below.

Please allow a minimum of 7-10 working days for delivery of heavy or large items. We would like to avoid any delivery hiccups so before you order, please make sure there is sufficient access to your property for delivery and the item will fit in your home. It is your responsibility to ensure that the items you have ordered from us will fit into your property and easy access can be achieved using 2 delivery persons only. If you are in any doubt about measurements or access, please ensure you contact us at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled delivery date so that we can advise appropriately.

Please note an additional £40 charge will be levied if we are unable to deliver a large or heavy item due to access reasons, if the item does not fit through the door or into that special space that needs filling, or if you are not at home at the time of delivery. We are not able to refund delivery charges in such circumstances. If we need to arrange a second delivery date for the reasons above, we reserve the right to charge for this at the full, non-subsidised rate, to cover our costs. In this event, we will advise you of the re-delivery charge prior to re-delivery.

If for any reason your order will be delayed or an item is out of stock, we will notify you immediately.

Product Assembly Service

Where a product requires assembly, we can often offer you the option of our 'white glove' service, when adding the product to your basket. This is an assembly-on-delivery service, for an additional charge of £25.00 per item. This service also includes carrying the item to the position required, within reason, and removal of all packaging if required.

*Deliveries during the COVID-19 period and until further notice

We continue to use a range of different delivery methods, from Royal Mail recorded delivery and parcel services for smaller items, to two man lorry deliveries for larger items. In all cases we aim to deliver your purchases as soon as is possible. Due to high demand for online shopping during the COVID-19 period , there may be some delays to our normal delivery schedules at busy times, as you would expect. Generally speaking please allow between 2 and 5 working days for your delivery during this current period. If we can deliver sooner, we will, if it takes a little longer we do apologise but please bear with us .

In the interest of the health and safety of our delivery crews, please inform us if you are self isolating. Please place a clear note on your front door or gate to this effect. We will leave your delivery by your front door or alternative safe place as requested, and text or telephone you to confirm delivery. For your assurance, all our drivers and delivery teams are equipped with hand sanitisers and alcohol wipes and will act responsibly. None of our employees are permitted to work if they are displaying any symptoms of COVID-19.

Some of our third party couriers have changed their Proof of Delivery Signature process to avoid contamination of Drivers / Consignees via the transfer of bacteria on hand held devices. Delivery drivers will either:

1. Note the "signatories" Full Name and Location (Reception, Goods In, Main Office) on the hand held devices screen; or

2. Request your permission to photograph (in order of preference): a) Face b) ID Badge c) Location of all the goods at point of confirmed transfer of 'control'.

Should you be away from home at the time of delivery, please do advise us of a safe place where to leave your parcel. Please note deliveries will be left at your own risk and we cannot accept responsibility for any losses.

Outside of the COVID-19 period, our delivery drivers and couriers will not leave a delivery without a signature. If you know you will not be available to sign for your order, please:

• either make arrangements for someone to sign on your behalf;
• or advise us at the time of placing your order where to leave your parcel. Deliveries will then be left at your own risk and we cannot accept responsibility for any losses.

The exception to the above options is Heavy or Large Items as you will need to be in at time of delivery (please see below).
