Delivery & Returns

 

Packaging

A good few years ago we decided to stop supplying single-use carrier bags in the shop. If required, we will wrap your goods/packages in recycled paper. If your package does contains any plastic wrapping please rest assured that this has been reused by ourselves.

Click & Collect

We are a wee shop and should have items ready to collect in the time it takes to have a coffee.

Local Delivery

We can provide free local delivery within the Inverness city area. We will aim to deliver the items within 24hrs preferably utilising a carbon neutral delivery system. However, our staff get grumpy if its raining or they have to cycle up a big hill. So we may use the van.

UK Delivery

We aim to provide the best possible delivery service on every order, our aim is to dispatch your items the same working day as the order is placed, provided the item(s) are in stock and the order is placed before 12.00pm. 

Delivery Charges To UK Mainland:

Standard Shipping - £3.50 We aim to ship the items the same day (provided the order comes in before 12 noon). Items will normally be sent via Royal Mail or Parcelforce and will require a signature; please provide an alternative address at checkout if no one will be home to sign for the parcel.
