Stove Delivery
Delivery to mainland England and Wales is included in the price of all our woodburning stoves, there is a surcharge for Scotland and Ireland. If you live outside of the UK, you can still take advantage of our very competitive prices. By using our international carrier service we are able to provide delivery to the rest of Europe and beyond. Please contact us sales@stovecentre.co.uk for a quote.
Delivery Policy
The carrier's responsibility is purely to tail lift down onto the pavement or driveway, having positioned his vehicle as near and convenient as is safe and responsible. Any additional help from the driver is a courtesy on his part, not an obligation.
Delivery time can be anywhere between 9AM and 5PM, unless otherwise agreed. PM delivery between 12 and 5 can arranged at no extra charge. AM delivery before midday is £10 extra, before 10AM is £18 extra. Delivery is normally week days only, but a special Saturday AM delivery can be arranged at an extra cost of £45.
Somebody sensible has to be in to take delivery, otherwise the carrier will go away again. Having unloaded, the driver will require a signature acknowledging receipt of the goods in good condition. Once the drivers docket has been signed and he leaves the scene, it is very difficult to make a claim for any damage subsequently.
Ideally the goods should be unpacked and check in the presence of the driver, particularly if any of the outer packaging is disturbed. If this is not possible, the drivers paperwork should be duly noted as "outer damaged, goods unexamined", and we should be notified immediately. A full examination of the contents must then be made within 24 hours and any damages or shortages notified to us without delay.
Most deliveries are received in perfect condition, but in the unlucky event of your goods sustaining damage, such as broken glass for example, regrettably we can only honour any claim if the correct procedures have been followed.
Whilst every effort is made on our part and by our carriers to deliver on the due day and within the normal or allotted time frame, no guarantees are given by us, and no compensation is payable in the event that the delivery is delayed. It would therefore be unwise to schedule installation/contractors for the same day that the delivery is due.
All items must be checked at the time of delivery to ensure that they are not faulty. If they appear faulty then we must be notified immediately.
