Updated 9th July 2020 - 09:58

Following developments regarding the recent COVID-19 outbreak, delivery networks have been experiencing delays to a number of destinations. Actions taken by countries to lockdown borders and reduce movement of people is set to affect transit times and delivery options. Our latest updates are outlined below.

Public Health England (PHE) have advised that people receiving parcels and packages are not at risk of contracting Covid-19, in fact it is safer to stay at home and accept a delivery rather than visit the shops. With this in mind all of our couriers are prioritising the health and welfare of both staff and customers by taking sensible precautions to reduce the spread of Covid-19 whilst minimising service disruptions. Depots are reducing the amount of non essential staff by encouraging working from home where possible. Shifts are being staggered to reduce contact between staff and regular, thorough cleaning is taking place in depots and on vehicles.

We are updating this page as and when we are provided with information from the carriers. This is an ever changing situation and we are working hard to keep you informed and up to date.

Summary

UK Deliveries

Currently there are no major disruptions or delays to standard UK deliveries.
To further reduce the spread of Covid-19 and minimise contact between drivers and customers all of our UK delivery services no longer require a signature upon delivery. The drivers will confirm the recipients identity and will sign the parcel as delivered on their behalf.

Hermes no longer offers the Light & Large service. You can still use Tuffnells service for large and bulky items.

Parcelforce have temporarily suspended their Large service.

UPS have temporarily suspended new collection requests for UK deliveries until Friday 10th July. Existing bookings will be collected as normal. International orders are unaffected.

UPS have suspended their money back guarantee on all services, whilst UPS will endeavour to deliver all packages on the appropriate working day there is no longer a refund for any late deliveries. UPS have also relaxed their timed delivery windows:

• UPS Express by 10:30am is now by 12pm
• UPS Express Saver by 12pm is now by 2pm

Europe & Rest of World Deliveries

Following developments regarding the recent COVID-19 outbreak, all countries are taking additional precautions to maintain the health of their citizens. Flight cancellations and tighter border controls are resulting in delays to most destinations.
