DELIVERY OPTIONS


***The main carrier that we use for any out-of-area deliveries is usually DPD. While the service we use is called an "overnight" service, neither DPD or Metro Fixings offer a 100% guarentee that it will arrive on a next working day basis. The vast majority of orders do arrive next day (the success rate is 97%), but this still is not a guarantee.***

 

  • NEXT WORKING DAY DELIVERY


If you place your order before 2pm, Monday to Friday, Metro Fixings will despatch any orders of stocked goods. We will send the goods on an overnight service but do not guarantee next day delivery - our preferred carriers are operating at a 97% success rate. If your goods are misrouted, problems arise due to inclement weather, or for any other reason, we will do our best to rebound for you as best we can, but it is not a guarenteed service.

All carriers are trying to deliver as quick as possible.


Our next day delivery service usually gets to you by 17:30 on the next business day.

Our delivery partners are unable to offer premium delivery services, including pre 0900, pre 1030 and pre 1200, so, at this time Metro Fixings cannot offer pre deliveries. 

Remote areas: For deliveries to some addresses in the United Kingdom, next day delivery as standard is not possible. Areas included are the Scottish Highlands, Northern Ireland and Channel Islands.

***Please note that deliveries to both Northern Ireland, The Republic of Ireland, Isle of Wight and the Channel Islands may be subject to an additional charge depending on the size of the order, we prefer that orders are placed verbally on the telephone for the Channel Islands.*** 

On occasion, items may be out of stock when you order. As soon as the goods come back into stock, we will despatch them immediately. The website indicates expected delivery lead times in those circumstances - Metro Fixings will send you an email after you place your order to specify the correct lead time.

If you have placed an order for goods both in and out of stock, Metro Fixings can send the stocked items on your order. When completing your order, please enter
"please send what you have in stock" in the customer comments. We will despatch those items that day, provided the order is placed before 2pm.
