My property was damaged during delivery - what should I do?

We're sorry to hear that your property may have been damaged during your delivery. If you believe the damage was caused by our delivery team, please let us know as soon as possible so we can investigate.

To help us assess your claim, any property damage must be reported within 24 hours of your delivery.

What information do I need to provide?

Photographs are essential as they help us understand what has happened and determine the best way to resolve the issue.

Please include:

  • A clear photo showing the room or area where the damage occurred.
  • A photo showing the damage in context so we can see where it is located.
  • One or more close-up photos clearly showing the damage.

Providing clear images will help us investigate your claim as quickly as possible.

My order was delivered by a third-party delivery company

If your order was delivered by one of our delivery partners, you'll need to report the damage directly to them.

Wincanton

Please use the customer portal that was sent to you by SMS or email when your delivery was booked to raise your property damage claim.

Parcelforce

Other delivery partners

Some of our suppliers use their own delivery companies to deliver directly to customers.

If your delivery was arranged by one of these partners, please contact the company that booked your delivery as soon as possible. Most delivery partners require property damage to be reported within 24 hours of the delivery taking place.
