Deliveries during the COVID-19 Outbreak and until further notice

Please note that with the exception of local deliveries (generally within a 20 mile radius of Burford), orders will not be dispatched across the Easter Bank Holiday Weekend, from Thursday 9th April to Monday 13th April inclusive. Please allow additional time for your deliveries across this period.

We operate a range of different delivery methods, from Royal Mail post and parcel servies for smaller items, to 2 man lorry deliveries for larger items. In all cases we aim to deliver your purchases as soon as is possible. The most local deliveries (OX18 postcodes) can often be delivered within 24 hours of order, but to be on the safe side please allow 3-5 days for Standard Delievries and 7-10 for Large Item Deliveries.

Whilst we do not currently envisage any signiifcant disruption to our delivery service, please be aware that this may be subject to change. We will telephone you should it be necessary to change your delivery date.

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 sanitizers and alcohol wipes and will act responsibly. None of our employees are permitted to work if they are displaying any symptoms of COVID-19, or if their immediate family are self isolating.

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.

Delivery

Our carrier 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).

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.

Heavy or Large Item Delivery

For deliveries to selected postcodes within 40 miles of Burford Garden Company: £25 per delivery.
For deliveries further than 40 miles away £50 per delivery.

Please note this is a subsidised delivery charge offered on the basis of a successful delivery on the date agreed for your items.

Please allow 3-10 working days for delivery. 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 the 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 often offer you the option of our 'white gloves' service, an assembly-on-delivery service, for an additional charge of £25 per item. This includes carrying the item to the position required, full assembly and removal of all packaging. If required, please select this option when adding the product to your basket.
