Stable mat Deliveries

Stable mats are delivered via a pallet service on either a Next Working Day or 2 to 3 Working Days. The time is taken from date of despatch. Orders placed before 12:00am are normally despatched the same day. Orders taken after this time will roll over to the next working day for despatch, and delivery times will be calculated from this despatch day.. Special Saturday morning or timed deliveries can be made but these will be at a premium which we will notify you of before despatch (once agreed the premium will be charged).

Pallet deliveries are made on lorries with tail-lifts capable of unloading up to 1 tonne pallets via pallet truck onto flat, hard standing (loose gravel will need to have construction boards laid down to enable unloading). Heavier pallets will need either mechanical handling on site (fork-lift or front-end loader etc) or assistance will be required to help off-load by hand.

All deliveries are a kerb side delivery however, if you have tarmac, concrete, block paving the driver will move the pallet to an appropriate place. They are not insured to move mats into buildings or across thresholds, or to manually lift mats off pallets once unloaded off their lorry.
