Postage & Packaging
At 'Cakes for Occasions Direct' we aim to provide an efficient service at an affordable and reasonable price.
We aim to keep our postal costs as low as possible for you the customer and so when orders are calculated at the shopping checkout you are not presented with a high postal cost that increases your order dramatically and unfairly.
After an indepth study of the cost of the Royal Mail postal service and the products that we supply, we have determined the most cost effective manor to charge postal costs is based on the order value and not weight, as follows:
Total order value Postal Charge
£0.01 - £2.99 - £2.50
£3.00 - £23.99 - £4.35
£24.00 - £31.99 - £5.45
£32.00 - £47.99 - £6.18
£48.00 - - £8.74
You will see that our postal charges are based very closely on Royal Mail charges and are very competitve.
We aim to despatch all orders and goods within 3 to 5 working days of receiving the order subject to stock availability.
Small items and light weight orders will be posted by Royal Mail First Class with Recorded Delivery - Signed for, included in the postal charge. All large / heavy orders will be sent by Royal Mail - Standard Parcels.
