Washing Up

You are not required to wash hired items before return. I just request that you remove food, empty drinks and repack into boxes provided

Delivery

I offer a free delivery and collection service for orders within 5 miles of my base in CM8 1LW.   A Delivery & Collection charge of £1 per additional mile, based on mileage from my address, maybe applied to other orders.

All items are cleaned before delivery and delivered in sturdy plastic boxes that are not overloaded.

Generally, delivery is the day before your event and collection the day after but, these arrangements can be flexible depending on your event and venue.

 You are also welcome to collect and return orders at a mutually convenient time.

Some of the china will be fragile and I request that it is handled with care.  I appreciate that accidents can happen despite this.

Damaged items should be returned, or a photo provided if it is too dangerous to do so.
