Package details

The size and weight of the consignment has strict requirements due to safety and health reasons. The driver may refuse your parcel if these requirements are exceeded. In this situation, you will not receive a refund. If the consignment is collected and later deemed too large or overweight all the sucharges would be paid by you including our administration charge up to £35 +VAT. Misdeclared dimensions or weight are also subject to extra charges. In this case the price difference will be charged which you should have paid in the first place when booking that parcel with us. An administration charge up to £35 +VAT may be issued as well.

As per UPS requirements - Large Package Surcharge which is defined as "A package is considered a “Large Package” when its length plus girth [girth = (2 x width) + (2 x height)] combined exceeds 330cm, but does not exceed the maximum UPS size of 419cm. Large Packages are subject to a minimum billable weight of 40kg. In addition, the Large Package Surcharge will be applied which is £35+VAT. Overmax Size Surcharge which is defined as "Packages with an actual weight of more than 70kg, or that exceed 270cm in length, or exceed a total of 419cm in length and girth combined [girth = (2 x width) + (2 x height)] are subject to an additional charge of £35+VAT. Packages exceeding 419cm in length and girth combined are also subject to the Large Package Surcharge. If your actual or dimensional weight goes beyond 70kgs then there is a surcharge of £23.69+VAT.

All the items that are not packaged in durable cardboard box or if you are sending Tyre (all types), Alloy wheel, liquids (all types) will be subject to a surcharge of £3.30+VAT as these charges go to the carrier you used for transportation.

All consignments must be clearly labeled, securely packaged with hard cardboard box, and contain the correct delivery address before collection and must be sturdy enough to withstand transit through the shipping network. If multiple packages are strapped together, and one becomes detached, it is by definition not securely packaged.

Collection and delivery

Our quote and booking system on the website will take all booking data according to the customer’s instructions. The customer may choose between various collection windows, although selected day and/or time slots may not be guaranteed.

Our collections occur between 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday through Fridays, excluding bank holidays. Please note we cannot guarantee a specific time for collection.

Deliveries and collections occur only on working days. You may opt to deliver on a Saturday for an extra cost. This option can be chosen during booking. Bank holidays and national holidays in the UK are not considered working days.

Someone must be available to collect your consignments on the day and time that you have requested. If no one is there to accept the package, a surcharge up to 100% percent of your original cost could be applied.

If the consignment is not collected during the allocated time slot, the customer must inform ClickandSendParcel.com through our failed collection form. We will attempt to arrange another collection at your convenience.

The delivery times displayed on our website are not guarantees, but rather estimates. Consignments could be delayed for unavoidable reasons that ClickandSendParcel.com and the carrier cannot control.

If your consignment must be delivered or collected from certain areas of Wales, Scotland, offshore islands, or Cornwall, they may be subjected to a 24 hour delay.

When you order a service, you must check a transit time. If redelivery is necessary, a surcharge may be applied to some services.

The carrier will attempt to deliver your consignment to your requested address. If another reception for central point is present, the driver will deliver the consignment at this point. For instance, if your consignment is sent to a business, it will be delivered at the reception area. If the recipient is not present at delivery, the driver may deliver to a neighbor or return the parcel to their depot. We use some carriers who may leave a calling card to let you know which action has been taken, but this is not a guaranteed service. Packages will only be left with a neighbor if someone is available to sign for the delivery.

Third party collections, freight forward collections, or three way collections occur when the customer has arranged a collection from a remote address. The customer must ensure someone is available at the remote collection address to give the consignment to the driver. A customer may incur up to 100% of the original shipping for a surcharge if there is no one to give the consignment to the driver.

Some carriers will not provide door-to-door service for some destinations. If this is your situation, the recipient is responsible to collect the consignment themselves. If you are unsure, contact ClickandSendParcel.com before shipping your consignment and we will inform you if this issue may arise.

An accurate contact telephone number for the delivery address is necessary so the delivery of your consignment is not late. If this information is incorrect or was not provided, it could result in the consignment being returned to the sender at their expense.

Tracking a consignment will not work unless the consignment has been collected, and it is the customer’s responsibility to learn when the package has been collected. You may track your consignment for a 12 week after shipping through our website or customer service department. After 12 weeks, a new shipment may be allocated with your tracking number.

Orders and order cancellations must be confirmed in writing. If this written notice is not received, or if duplicated documentation is required, please contact us to confirm the transaction.

Orders can be put on hold or reactivated up to seven days after the initial order. After this time period, the customer must request a refund and will need to place a new order if needed.

All orders can be tracked online, and you may contact our office before it is returned to fix any issue. If the package has been returned, it will not be reshipped for free and there will be no refund on the order when the return completes the agreed-upon contract.

In the case a driver uses a different tracking number than you expect, or if the collection point assigns a new shipping label rather than that supplied by ClickandSendParcel.com, you can only track using the shipping number recorded at collection on the website of the carrier or by contacting our customer service.

Proof of delivery is retained for up to 90 days after the delivery date. You will be charged a £5 fee for each item for hard copy proof of delivery.

ClickandSendParcel.com does not guarantee stopping a consignment when it is in transit, although we will attempt to do so if requested.

Customs clearance

You will be prepaying postage charges only for your consignment. ClickandSendParcel.com does not control customs queries or charges that could arise.

These charges are applied by the country’s authorities. You must check whether taxes, duties, or customs charges will be charged for the consignment. To do so, speak to the Consulate in the destination country. We can offer advice, but are not the point of authority.

ClickandSendParcel.com passes on the custom taxes, duties, and other charges to the sender. The sender must pay these charges. Charges will vary between countries and there could be a chargeimposed to destroy the package if these taxes are not paid. The sender will also be liable for these charges.

If the parcel has been returned to the sender from outside the United Kingdom, the charges will include an appropriate import rate for the package. This will likely be higher than the price the sender paid to export the package.

Consignments shipped to outside the European Union require aproforma/commercial invoice. The absence of this document, or inaccurate or incomplete information could result in a delay of the consignment and it may be returned at the sender’s expense.

Surcharges

The weight and dimensions of the packages in your consignment must be accurately declared upon ordering. Each package will be scanned and weighed by the carrier. If your declaration is underweight actually or dimensionally, you will be surcharged a varying amount depending on the service and carrier.

For International deliveries, if your postcode/pincode/zipcode falls under the carriers' extended area then a surcharge will be applied which you need to pay before the collection. We will inform you regarding such surcharge. It is not possible for us to list all the International postcodes on the courier quote page and hence this will always be informed after you have booked your delivery. The amount you pay for such delivery is not the final amount as the final amount would be classed after you have paid the extended area surcharge. If you do not wish to proceed then your full money will be refunded. If you do wish to proceed then an invoice for that surcharge will be sent for you to pay before we confirm this delivery. Please note until you have not paid this surcharge your order is not confirmed so please do not commit the receiver for approx delivery date prior to confirming your order.

Refunds and discounts

The ClickandSendParcel.com site offers discounts automatically to our account holders on particular services. Users are automatically offered these items if the account holder has logged in. If they were not logged in when the offer was shown, discounts are not issued retroactively.

Providing the sender has sufficient grounds, refunds are issued within 30 days. These grounds may include a collection that cannot take place because of a factor under the carrier’s control.

Delay, loss, and damages

Any claims for damage, delay, or loss will be exempt if they are on the list of prohibited items. Please check your consignment against the prohibited items list.

The consignment is required to be packaged to a professional standard. Claims resulting in a package that was not packed to professional standard are rejected and carriers' decision is the final decision. Items must be packaged in a double box with additional padding around the item. Our packaging advice can give more information and recommended guidelines. When using any of our services you need to comply with the respective carrier packaging guidelines as well. For UPS the information can be found here http://www.ups.com/packaging/?loc=en_GB. For Parcelforce its http://www.parcelforce.com/sites/default/files/Packaging%20guidelines%20Final%20300412.pdf.

If the consignment is damaged, the packaging is kept for inspection. The items must be inspected in this state in which it was delivered at its delivery address. If the item has been repaired or moved, or if the packaging is thrown away, the claim will be rejected.

Items traveling through our shipping services need to withstand knocks, bumps, and short drops during transit. Do not send fragile items. Items that are damaged through falls but have intact packaging will be declined for any claims. You should not send such items using our services.

Consignments on pallets must be suitably protected, secured, and packaged. Using palette wrap alone cannot be substituted for other protection packaging. The purpose of pallet wrap is to secure the goods to the palette only and will provide no more protection. Goods must be well package, and it is the sender’s responsibility to ensure they are protected and well packaged in transit.

Claim for damage to the consignment is invalid if the external packaging is intact, as the internal packaging was not sufficient. Claims for loss of item will only cover the initial £50 free insurance per package provided by the carrier regardless of the value for the item. You can always insure your item for loss or damage by purchasing additional insurance.

If you are unable to check all parcels when they arrive, you must sign "unchecked" for each.

Packaging or boxes that are clearly damaged on delivery must be noted as "Damaged" by the recipient or any claims are refused. The sender must inform the recipients of these terms and conditions.

If a claim must be made, complete the initial claim damage form and we will assist throughout the rest of the process. The tracking number and order number must be submitted along with the detailed description of the complaint or claim. We will respond in two working days after we have reviewed the details.

Claims of lost must be reported to ClickandSendParcel.com within 21 days from the date of dispatch and Claims for damaged items must be reported within 7 days of Delivery otherwise the carrier may reject processing the claim. The claims process may take 4 to 8 weeks, and decisions are at the carrier’s sole discretion.
