Q. I live overseas, can I still buy from you directly?
A. Yes, provided we do not have a distributor in your country of residence we can arrange the export of your order for you. If we do have a distributor, whilst we cannot export directly to you, we can certainly assist you with an introduction to our local team who will be able to assist you with your purchase. Our export team can be contacted on +44 (0)1295 814337; and will be happy to explain how to arrange an overseas delivery.

Q. My property is difficult to access in a large vehicle, can you still deliver to me?
A. Yes, we can certainly still deliver to you, however we may need to organise a specific type of vehicle. Please contact us for help and advice.

Q. I live in a flat or up several flights of stairs, can you still deliver?
A. This shouldn’t be an issue, but please do make us aware at the point of placing your order. Our home delivery team will contact you discuss any delivery restrictions or likely issues before delivery; but if you suspect our delivery team may struggle to deliver to your address, call us as soon as possible to discuss any concerns on +44 (0)1295 812088.

Q. I am expecting a delivery today; can I track my order?
A. If you are waiting for a Fired Earth delivery on our own vehicles, we can only give you an AM or PM delivery slot prior to the delivery date. We can give you a rough indication of time but this will be estimated as there are so many elements outside our control. If you are waiting in for a delivery, we will happily check our vehicle tracking systems to see if we can assist you any further. If you have booked a carrier delivery, our carriers operate on a service standard of anytime between 8am and 6pm Monday to Friday (unless otherwise agreed) and do not offer a tracking service. If you are concerned about your delivery because it is getting late in the day, we will check with our service provider for an update.

Q. I missed my delivery, what happens now?
A. Please contact your local store as soon as possible and our team will help arrange a new date for the delivery. We may have to charge an additional delivery fee for this service if our delivery team attempted the first delivery at the pre-agreed time.

Q. Can I have my goods delivered to an alternative address?
A. If you have previously bought from us and arranged delivery to your account address, we can deliver your order to an alternative address for any subsequent deliveries. Sadly, if this is the first delivery for you, we can only deliver to the account address linked to the payment card used. This is to protect you from fraud or card misuse.

Fired Earth Scheduled Transport
UK Mainland:
These deliveries are made by our own fleet of Fired Earth trucks and vans wherever possible. Day-time deliveries are carried out between 7am and 6pm Monday to Friday only, and a morning or afternoon slot is allocated to your order to help you plan your day around the delivery:
• Simply place your order with your local showroom or the on-line store and confirm a suitable delivery date.
• We aim to deliver your order within 7-10 days of your order being placed (subject to stock availability)
• We will endeavour to contact you 2 days before your proposed delivery to confirm a morning or afternoon delivery time on the agreed day/days.
• Whilst we will try to accommodate your preferred delivery window, this cannot be guaranteed. Our sales teams are unable to guarantee delivery times as the scheduling of our vehicles is outside their control. Our scheduling system routes orders to ensure we make best use of the available driving time and vehicle space.
• Wherever possible we will deliver your order onto your premises, and will always deliver inside your home if safe to do so, if you have ordered furniture or wood products. Due to the heavy nature of our tile and bathroom products we strongly recommend that these are delivered and stored in a dry external location i.e. garage, outhouse or on a driveway until needed. All orders will be wrapped to withstand inclement weather for a short period of time.
• Some products can only be delivered to the nearest access point due to their individual weight; our store teams can advise you if your product is affected by this restriction. NB: due to the breakable nature of our products, it is important to reduce any unnecessary handling. If we are unable to make contact with you to confirm your scheduled delivery time, we will remove your order from the schedule to avoid a failed delivery. Our Home Deliveries team will make every effort to contact you via our text service, a call which will display on your handset as 01295 812088, or via email. If you are worried you have not received a call, please contact 01295 814270 for assistance.

Scotland, The Highlands and Islands:
For Scotland, the Highlands and Islands we use a carefully selected carrier for deliveries. Orders are shipped to the transport hub each week for distribution to customers the following week. As soon as they have received your order they will make contact with you to arrange a suitable delivery time. If for any reason you are unable to accept delivery within a reasonable time, the carrier will return your order to us on the next available service.
• Day-time delivery between 7am and 6pm Monday to Friday.
• Simply place your order with your local showroom or the on-line store and confirm a suitable delivery date.
• We aim to deliver your order within 7-10 days of your order being placed (subject to stock availability)

This method is ideal if you have a small order and require the goods urgently; there are a few products that are unsuitable for this method of transport and we would rather deliver on our own services i.e. mirrors.

Europe
Export deliveries ‘door to door’ are made on tail lift lorries and offer kerbside delivery only. Goods will not be taken into a building (flat or house). When the goods have arrived in the vicinity of the overseas address, the shipping agents will contact the customer directly to arrange a suitable day for delivery.
Within the EU we keep the VAT on our orders, however if you have a trade VAT number our Finance department will verify the number and we can exempt the order from UK VAT when this number is accepted, provided the order is being delivered using our export delivery service.
Countries in Europe but not in the EU, e.g. Turkey, will need extra paperwork to get passed by Customs & Excise and therefore may need extra time upon arrival in Customs & Excise before delivery can be made. UK VAT will be removed from the order, the customer will need to pay local taxes and duties prior to receiving the goods.
Some of our products are classified as dangerous goods for transport purposes and as such we are only able to deliver these by sea or road freight within Europe. We are unable to offer air freight deliveries for these products.
Customers are welcome to arrange their own transport and collect the goods from our warehouse in Oxfordshire. If you choose this option, please advise us when placing your order so that the goods are packaged according to export requirements. We can then provide you with a quote for this service.
