In the event of non-payment by you for such goods we will, without loss of any rights or remedy, remove from your possession any goods belonging to us in accordance with these conditions. We shall be entitled to enter upon the property where the goods are stored to repossess and remove the same. You hereby grant us irrevocable licence to enter your premises for the said purposes.
  6. PRODUCTS We reserve the right to alter any details or design of products illustrated, without notice, and while every effort is made to describe goods accurately in the catalogue no warranty is given to accuracy, and no responsibility will be accepted for error of mis-description or any resulting loss.
  7. VAT Where applicable all prices quoted are subject to V.A.T. at the current rate.
  8. DELIVERY Delivery charges are based on deliveries to manned business premises with the facility to unload the goods. The carriers charge extra for the following services: Booked-in deliveries, Timed Deliveries, Tail-Lift Deliveries, Failed deliveries and Residential address deliveries. If your delivery requirement falls in one of these brackets, you need to contact us first.
    1. Every effort will be made to deliver on time, but any delivery day specified is a best estimate and no liability is accepted for any loss arising from delay or error in the delivery of goods. All deliveries will be charged at the prevailing rates applying at the date of such delivery.
    2. Claims arising from damages, delay or partial loss in transit must be made in writing to us, so as to reach us within 5 days of receipt of goods.
    3. All claims with regard to the quality or quantity of the goods shall be made in writing to us so as to reach us within 5 days of receipt of goods, or such goods shall be deemed to comply as to quality and quantity within the terms of the contract.
    4. You must examine all goods delivered at the time of delivery. We shall not be liable for any loss arising from damage caused to the goods in transit unless loss or damage is noted on the delivery note at the time of delivery.
    5. If the Customer establishes that any of the goods have not been delivered, have been delivered damaged, are not of the correct quantity, or do not comply with their description, the supplier shall at its option replace with similar goods, any of the goods which are missing, lost or damaged, or do not comply with their description, allow the customer credit for their invoice value, or repair any damaged Goods.
    6. If the Customer establishes that any of the goods are defective the supplier shall at its option replace with similar goods or repair any defective goods, allow the customer credit for their invoice value or to the extent that the goods are not to specification, assign to the customer (so far as the supplier is able to do so) any warranties given by the manufacturer of the goods.
    7. Claims in respect of non-delivery must be made in writing so as to reach us within 4 days from receipt of our invoice.
    8. A delivery charge will be made for each truck unless the truck is collected from our warehouse.
    9. Delivery charges are based on the item(s) and delivery location, these are calculated at checkout before payment it taken. If you have several items to order, it maybe worth checking with us first – as we may have cheaper alternatives to consolidate multiple items.
    10. Delivery charges are based on deliveries to manned business premises with the facility to unload the goods. The carriers charge extra for the following services: Booked-in deliveries, Timed Deliveries, Tail-Lift Deliveries, Failed deliveries and Residential address deliveries. If your delivery requirement falls in one of these brackets, you need to contact us first.
    11. A fee of £10 will be charged in addition to the standard delivery charge for home address deliveries. We reserve the right to reverse transactions to home addresses for security reasons.
    12. An additional charge will be made for attempted deliveries, refused deliveries and / or aborted collections. To avoid this charge, please ensure someone is at the delivery location to receive your order. Charges vary dependent upon many factors, including location, number of items, weight and service.
    13. Many of the items we sell are heavy freight items and you will need a forklift truck in order to unload the items from the delivery vehicle. If you do not have use of a forklift truck, then it is important that you tell us, so we can request your goods be delivered on a vehicle with a tail lift. Requesting a tail lift vehicle may increase the carriage charge, but it may also require a slightly extended delivery time.
  9. CANCELLATION CHARGES A charge will be made on all orders cancelled after the goods have been despatched or notification is not received before the end of business on the day the order was received.
  10. RETURNS
    Please notify us of your intention to return an item within 14 days of receipt and ensure the item is sent back to us in 21 days of receipt. Clearly write the designated returns number and attach the returns paperwork. All returns need prior notification, unsolicited returns will not be accepted by our warehouse. Unfortunately, delivery charges are not refundable where items are ordered incorrectly, or simply not suitable. Products can be made available for viewing in our warehouse, should you wish to view them in person to check suitability for your needs. Returns charges are not applicable in the unlikely event the product is faulty within its warranty period.
    The returned product must be unused, in its original supplied condition and housed in its original packaging. Items will be inspected upon return, if they meet the requirements, a refund will be issued – minus the return carriage fee. If the item is not in a suitable condition for resale at full market price, no refund will be provided.
    This returns policy is for Business users, consumers rights are not affected by this.

FORCE MAJEURE We will not be held responsible for the failure or delay in the carrying out of our obligations under the contract which may arise out of any cause outside our reasonable control or inability to procure materials or articles except at higher prices due to any such cause.

  13. HEALTH & SAFETY AT WORK ACT 1974 For the purpose of the Health and Safety at Work act 1974 the customer hereby undertakes to ensure that the goods will be safe and without risks to health and safety when properly used. In particular the customer must examine the goods to establish whether they are safe to use in the condition in which they are delivered, and (without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) the customer undertakes not to use the goods without first satisfying its public liability and/or employers’ liability insurers or some other person (nor being the customer or an employee of the customer) qualified and competent in such matters that the Brakes, Steering Systems, Tyres, Forks and Hydraulics are safe and without risk to health and safety when properly used and that the goods satisfy all statutory requirements for the time being in force.
