These will be made Monday-Friday with a 9am-5pm delivery slot as arranged with you and may be 'kerbside'. For a full description of this process and 'kerbside' see point 11 below.

4.4 The delivery periods set out in this Section 4 are indicative only, and whilst we will make every effort to ensure that you receive your delivery in good time, we do not guarantee delivery before the end of the stated period.

4.5 We may conduct fraud screening checks before dispatching the product, and these checks may delay your delivery. If the delivery is likely to be delayed as a result of fraud screening checks, we will notify you.

10. Delivery problems

10.1 If you experience any problems with a delivery, please contact us using the contact details that we publish on our website or otherwise notify to you.

10.2 If our delivery service provider is unable to deliver your products, and such failure is your fault, and you do not collect your products from our delivery service provider within the relevant time limit, we may agree to arrange for re-delivery of the products; however, we reserve the right to charge you for the actual costs of re-delivery (even where the initial delivery was free of charge).

10.3 An indicative list of the situations where a failure to deliver will be your fault is set out below:

• (a) you provided the wrong address for delivery;
• (b) there is a mistake in the address for delivery that was provided;
• (c) the address for delivery is not reasonably accessible;
• (d) the address for delivery cannot safely be accessed;
• (e) if in-person receipt is not required, there is no easy and secure means of leaving the products at the address for delivery and there is no person available to accept delivery; or
• (f) if in-person receipt is required, there is no person available at the address for delivery to accept delivery and provide a signature.

10.4 Due to the size and the number of parts involved many of our products ship in multiple boxes. Sometimes, due to the courier’s logistics, the boxes may not be delivered together. If you receive a delivery of only some of your order, please don't panic, allow at least 48hrs for the rest of your order to turn up, and then contact us if you need us to chase anything.

10.5 If you believe items are missing or damaged from your full order you must notify us using the contact details that we publish on our website or otherwise notify to you within 48 hrs of receipt of your order.

11. Large/heavy item deliveries

If you place a large/heavy order such as a squat rack or treadmill, or over 11 items such as a set of dumbbells, our delivery partners LBC Logistics, Furdeco, Bishopsgate or Pallex will fulfil delivery dependant on your location. If this is the case, you will be contacted within 48 hours of placing your order to arrange a convenient delivery day.

Furdeco and Bishopsgate will deliver to a ground floor room of your choice.
Deliveries by Pallex and Pallet Line are 'kerbside' delivery as standard. Kerbside delivery is commonly used by palletised freight companies, as they are typically used to delivering larger, heavier items that are harder to deliver directly to the door or inside a house.

Kerbside delivery means that items will be delivered to the nearest kerbside at the address specified. Our freight drivers will position their vehicle as close as possible to the delivery address and unload the palletised goods into a spot on the kerbside that is safe and keeps the pallet secure. This is to ensure the safety of the driver, the customer and the general public.

Any pallets you have ordered will be loaded safely from the truck to the ground by our trained drivers using a tail-lift. We will make sure that the goods are left in a safe and stable spot on the kerb. However, we will not be able to assist you to transport items from the kerbside spot to any building. The delivery driver will always have to work within health and safety guidelines.

However, we will not be able to assist you to transport items from the kerbside spot to any building or elsewhere, and to the extent that any of our delivery partners do assist you on your request, we will not (to the extent permitted by law) be liable to you for any damage caused to any person or property arising from such assistance.

To the extent that we deliver goods to you 'kerbside', then for the purpose of clause 7.7 of our Terms and Conditions, you will be deemed to have taken physical possession of the goods once the goods are delivered to your kerbside.

Please arrange for disposal of the pallet as our partners will not be able to take it away with them.
