Full Delivery Schedule:
Order Before 13 December
In order to make sure you recieve your goods ahead of Christmas we strongly recommend ordering the week commencing 13th December. Although we will be operating our delivery service between Monday 20th and Thursday 23rd December, our couriers will be extremely busy. This year more than ever. They will have the same staffing problems and transport issues from this season that everyone else does. Plus the recent HGV driver shortages issues the UK has experienced. As well as coronavirus related problems. As such, they do not guarantee next day delivery and do not insure goods against loss. Because we send perishable food items, if a package is not delivered, they are often destroyed. The Sausage Man UK recommends that you read our full terms and conditions on 3rd party couriers.
Alternative delivery methods
Temperature Controlled Pallets
Frozen and chilled pallet companies work in a slightly different way since they can store our goods for some time if necessary. This means they have different operating times to those published above. If you would like a quotation for a temperature-controlled pallet, please contact us at the earliest opportunity. This service must be booked and paid for 24 hours before dispatch, so it is best to contact us at least a couple of days before you need it loaded, the earlier the better.
Sausage Man Van Delivery
The Sausage Man UK Ltd runs our fleet of vans in and around central London, going to and from our base in Dartford, Kent. These ‘shared’ routes load several deliveries all in a similar area, and may be a chargeable service. We can also do bespoke dedicated van deliveries when we have the capacity. We will be running a number of extra vans this Christmas. All van delivery enquiries should be made by contacting us directly, as far in advance as possible.
