Delivery Terms and Conditions

Delivery Dates: Delivery dates are estimates only. While we strive to meet these dates, we accept no liability for any losses due to delays.

Delivery Arrangements: Delivery arrangements within the UK are at our discretion unless specified by the Buyer.

Risk in Goods: Risk in the goods passes to the Buyer upon off-loading at the destination if we are the carrier, or upon leaving our premises if another carrier is used.

Important Delivery Instructions:

  • If any items are missing or damaged, notify the driver immediately. They must update the courier portal.
  • Do not sign for goods you have not received. For example, if the courier’s scanner shows three parcels are being delivered but you only receive two, do not sign.

Note: Failure to follow these steps may prevent us from claiming missing goods and issuing replacements or refunds.

Reporting Issues: You must notify us of any discrepancies within 24 hours of receiving your order. Failure to do so may result in your courier claim being voided or rejected.

Non-Delivery Notification: If you have not received your order within 5 days of placing it, you must contact us within this period. Failure to contact us within 5 days may result in missing or damaged items being rejected or voided in the courier claim.

On-site Deliveries: Direct Channel cannot be held accountable for items signed off on building sites that are later reported missing. It is the customer’s responsibility to be present at the time of delivery.
