Hot in the Kitchen?

Is the safe, secure delivery of your kitchenware making you hot under the collar? Are you getting too many breakages? Are you a kitchenware manufacturer looking for greener delivery? We may be able to help :-)

With the modern trend of designer kitchens and designer kitchenware you would think delivery of the items was not important, and we would forgive you for thinking that! Sending out items to customers is an important aspect of the sale, and your kitchen businesses reputation.

You see, bespoke kitchen items need bespoke delivery.

Lets look at  the glass splashback that are both popular and easy to clean (and a quick way of changing you kitchens look), strong packaging means it can go through the parcel networks. Inexpensive and if packed correctly, unlikely to break. The only downside to this type of delivery is the customer may have to drive to a depot to collect if they are not in. A popular and effective method of delivery in this instance.

Where it becomes more difficult is when you have 4m granite worktops to deliver, they are heavy and not exactly able to be sent via the Royal Mail! They are oversized and not often able to go via a parcel network and thats where we come in, we collect and deliver granite worktops via our same day courier services. When it’s granite it is possible it can be co-loaded with other goods going that way. If the worktops are wood or eco friendly material, then its a dedicated vehicle thats needed.

Some worktops are not so difficult on the delivery front – they have veneers and other finishes that are not easily scratched, and their delivery journey can be shared with other items – the greener delivery way :-)

Ovens and hobs can go via the pallet networks and delivered overnight, unless they are all going to the same end destination and then it’s cheaper to use us, give us a call and we’ll give you a quote for dedicated delivery. We can also deliver your white goods, and as with all our services we’ll recycle the packaging for you – just send it back with the driver :-)

If you need advice on delivering small or large amounts of kitchen items, give us a call – we’re happy to quote :-)
