Shipping & Returns

​

How long does it take for an item to be delivered?

​

The delivery time will depend on the product, however we aim to dispatch your item within 7 working days, and deliver to UK addresses within 7-10 working days.  International delivery times will be longer, and will depend on the product and the destination country. 


To enable us to process and deliver your items, your contact details will be shared with shippers so where applicable they can provide you with updates on your delivery.

​

How much is Post & Packing? 
Postage and packing (Shipping costs) will depend on the size of the item and the country they are being delivered to.  The delivery rates for standard delivery to a UK address start at £3.99, and international delivery from £15.00. The amount will be confirmed once you have entered your shipping address during the checkout process – before making a payment or completing your order. The UK P&P for items is also displayed with products as they feature in our Guardian Associates programmes. The P&P is shown on the screen, along with the product, its item number and price.   
If you order multiple items you will only pay one Postage and Packing Cost- which will be the single item with the highest Post & Packing cost, decided by weight and size. 
 

Where does Guardian Associates  deliver to?

Working with our suppliers we aim to deliver items to all areas served by the Royal Mail.  We will be adding different delivery options and these will be displayed at checkout when available. 

Do you deliver outside the UK? We can deliver items internationally, although the delivery time and charges will vary according to the type and size of item, and destination country.

Please note, payment of all customs duties, import taxes or other fees is the responsibility of the by person receiving the imported purchase item. The amount to pay will vary from country to country. 
 

How will I know when my item has been shipped? 
When your product is despatched, a tracking number will be emailed to you so you track delivery and anticipate a likely delivery date.
