Why is firework delivery expensive?
For every order that’s placed we subsidise the packing and delivery costs. We’d like to explain the actual costs of delivering fireworks to you. We’ve broken these down below.
Â
Couriers initial charge = £20 – £100+ depending on area.
Hazardous goods surcharge = £10
Each addtional kilo = £0.40
Special UN Firework Cartons = £3.50 – £7 each – depending on size!
Packaging materials and special labels = £1.00 this covers the costs of the special labels we have to use and all the other packing materials.
Staff time packing = Far too much! – I think they should do it for free, but they don’t agree. 😉
Â
So please understand that we would love to ship all our orders for a few pounds or even for free but we’re not shipping books etc. they are explosives and we swallow as much of the costs as possible.
ALL CONSIGNMENTS MUST BE SIGNED FOR
It is important you use an address where someone will be able to sign for your order. Where possible use a business address for your delivery as it’s more likely that someone will be there. REMEMBER. Legally, fireworks have to be signed for by someone over 18 and identification may be required.
Failed Delivery Attempts.
If the delivery fails due to no one being present at the premises or not old enough, our courier will usually leave a card for you to get in touch to arrange a re-delivery. Please note that re-delivery is subject to a £15 re-delivery fee so please try to ensure that there is someone available to sign for the fireworks. We reserve the right to charge the re-delivery fee.
Ireland / Northern Ireland / Isle Of White / Off Shore Islands / Outside the UK
Unfortunately it’s not possible for us to deliver to any of the locations above. We ONLY deliver to the mainland UK.
Items including free delivery
Certain items on our website include free delivery. Free delivery excludes areas and services that are subject to a surcharge, the Highlands, AM deliveries etc.
Product Availability
We run a live stock system which is 99.9% accurate, but sometimes we come across items that have been mis-boxed or are damaged, this only comes to light during the picking and packing process. If this happens we will endevour to contact you to find a suitable alternative. In the event we have to substitute an item it will be with one of equal or greater value. (we are well known for ensuring you get far better replacements than you ordered!).
Returns.
Hopefully you will never need to return a product, but if you do, here are the details.Unwanted Goods.

(It is illegal to send the items through the postal service or an unlicensed courier) The items must be unopened and in their original packaging.
