Access
Kerbside pallet delivery access
All pallet deliveries are kerbside by truck. Please make sure vehicles have access to the delivery point. If there are any restrictions, you must inform us at the time of order.
- Someone must be available: There must be someone at the delivery address on the day of delivery to accept and sign for the order.
- Road access: If a bin lorry can access and collect from outside your home or business premises, a pallet truck should usually have suitable road access.
- No obstacles: The route should be free from obstacles such as low hanging tree branches.
- No inclines: The delivery area should be flat rather than on a slope.
- Hard surface only: Delivery should be made on a hard surface, not loose ground such as gravel or grass.
- Turning and parking space: There must be enough room to park at the kerbside and make delivery. Narrow roads and cul-de-sacs need suitable turning space.
- Restrictions: You must advise us of parking or time restrictions at the delivery point.
If access is difficult and we are not informed in advance, redelivery or failed-delivery fees may apply. Delivery Day
