Delivery & collection
⛟
Shipping methods vary depending on the size of product and order. All products are boxed and then placed within shipping cartons for dispatch.
The majority of our shipments are palletised on either a UK 1200 x 1000mm or EU 800 x 1200mm pallet depending on product, then wrapped with packing film for shipment by container or HGV.
All goods are dispatched with the expectation of the delivery address having the facilities to accept the delivery, e.g. suitable safety precautions, lifting equipment and personnel for unloading an HGV with pallets or containers. Failure to accept delivery as agreed may incur additional charges.
Small orders and items, such as samples and prototypes are dispatched via DPD or a suitable alternative.
Damaged or lost delivery
We take such matters very seriously and will look into individual cases thoroughly.
If the delivery has been damaged, we will require images of the damage and any invoice or consignment reference of the affected delivery to be emailed to sales@dantech.uk.com. Further information is also available in our Terms & Conditions.
Collections
Collections are only available by appointment. Please contact us for details when placing your order.
Dantech Electronic Engineering designs and builds products to last. This is why we are able to offer a five-year warranty for most of our products. For more information, please refer to our terms & conditions: Warranty & Claims.
