If your order contains any of these items and is sent via Royal Mail – it is required we use their Age Verification Service. An adult over 18, prepared to show ID, will be required to receive and sign for the delivery.

Damaged Parcel

If the parcel is damaged upon arrival, please refuse delivery and ask the courier to return the goods to us. Please contact us at support@workshopheaven.com to let us know, so we can promptly arrange for a replacement or refund. 

Proof of Delivery

You agree that proof of delivery supplied by our delivery company is sufficient evidence to establish that goods have been received.

We or the courier accept no liability if you, the customer, asks for, or make arrangements with, the courier to have your parcel left anywhere without the need to provide your signature as proof of receipt. 

The courier will ask you to complete and sign an authorisation which states “I hereby accept the DHL Terms and Conditions and authorise DHL to deliver my shipment as specified. I release DHL and my Shipper (Workshop Heaven) from all liability for any loss or damage that may result from delivering the shipment according to my request.”

Asking for a parcel to be left in “safe place”  is done so entirely at your own risk and we are not responsible if the parcel is not found where you asked it to be left.  

Undeliverable Parcels

We do not take responsibility for incorrect addresses input by you, the customer, at the point of check out. Please double check the delivery address carefully when placing your order.

Occasionally parcels are returned to us as undeliverable after failed delivery attempt(s). When we receive a parcel back as undeliverable, we’ll issue a full refund, including the delivery costs unless the address you provided us was incorrect, or the parcel was refused by the recipient, in which case only the cost of goods will be refunded.

If you'd still like to purchase the items in that undelivered parcel, you will need to place a new order. If this repeat order, to that same address, is then returned to us a second time as undeliverable, we will only refund the cost of the goods, and not the delivery charges.

Gift Vouchers

Gift vouchers are auto sent by email free of charge.
