For chilled and frozen food delivery we Highly Recommend our Supercold packaging upgrade.  This upgrades to a cardboard and polystyrene lined box and additional ice. (£2.99 holds multiple products)

Our standard packaging for chilled and frozen deliveries is a food grade pouch.  This consists of foil, bubble wrap. Additionally products are supplemented with ICE.  They are also wrapped in more bubble wrap insulation and paper, to absorb condensation moisture which is normal. With the standard option, some thaw should be expected. 

We can not refund or replace any products which are sent with this 'standard packaging' option, due to thaw.

We can not Guarantee the condition of frozen product to remote area's of Scotland, above the Glasgow / Edinburgh area or Northern Ireland.

We can send frozen food to overseas locations like the Channel Islands although no guarantee is offered, due to potential transit and customs delays.  A cold box must be purchased in this scenario.

We reserve the right to substitute products with an alternative brand in the unlikely event we are out of stock of the purchased product.  Any change in value will be refunded.
