Please ensure that You have given Us current and complete contact details.  You must let Us know prior to the delivery if any details have changed as we cannot accept responsibility for any consequent issues or costs.

9.3 Non-local deliveries (more than 20 miles from Hortons showground) - It is not possible (or economic) to send distance deliveries on a dedicated small lorry for just your delivery. This is only possible if You agree to pay extra for this dedicated lorry service. Otherwise the delivery will be made on large vehicles (possibly as large an articulated lorry) and your building will be sharing the lorry with other non-local deliveries.

10. Packaging

10.1. The Goods are wrapped in a plastic, waterproof, non-breathable membrane which is designed to be weather-tight.

10.2. We cannot guarantee that the Goods will remain in perfect condition if they are stored for an extended period of time because any moisture that is within the wrapping cannot escape and would cause ‘sweating’.

10.3. 'Sweating' will damage the Goods.

10.4. If You do not intend to construct the Goods as soon as You receive them You must loosen but not remove all of the plastic wrapping to aerate the timber. We emphasise that the plastic wrapping must be placed in such a way that it remains as a weather-proofing layer.

10.5. We will not accept any claim for damage if the weather-proofing layer has been completely removed and the Goods have been exposed to the elements. The Goods are Your property and You must take reasonable care of them.

11. Day of the Delivery

11.3. The Carrier is not liable for any damage incurred and You permit the Carrier to enter and/or offload into Your property at Your own risk. Vulnerable areas could include (but are not limited to) manholes, drainage grills & grates, soft or waterlogged ground, grassed areas, trees & tree branches, flower beds which could be damaged (by the delivery lorry or by the Goods when setting them down on the ground) unless You cordon them off with high visibility tape or protect them with boards or road-plates. It is Your responsibility to warn the driver of vulnerable areas as they are not always obvious.

11.4. The Carrier will not transport the Goods to the site where the Goods will be erected so at least 2 able-bodied people must be present at the delivery to assist with offloading the Goods. estiThe Carrier will refuse to deliver if 2 able-bodied people are not present and will returns the Goods.
