Surcharges applied during the booking process

Residential Delivery Charge

applies a surcharge for deliveries to home addresses.

£2.47 surcharge in addition to the delivery costs.

More info about residential delivery charges:
It costs a courier more to deliver to a home address because the courier may have to travel further and often the receiver isn’t home, so the delivery fails. As a result, most couriers charge more to deliver to your home address.

We do however subsidise the cost of home delivery so you enjoy significant savings, as you do with all ’s price comparison services.

Please note that the residential delivery charge is applied during the booking process once you have selected the collection and delivery address. We cannot apply the charge in your initial quote as we don’t know if you are shipping to a home address at that point. You can however add it as an upgrade option on the quote page itself.
