Snorestore Christmas/New Year Deliveries

Leave a reply

Snorestore Christmas DeliveriesSnorestore orders will be dispatched every working day up to Monday 24th December. Orders which leave us on 24th December will not get to their destinations in time for Christmas as there are no Royal Mail deliveries on 25th and 26th December. So please don’t leave it until the last minute – order as early as you can, and preferably choose a Next Working Day delivery service at the checkout. Last posting dates are shown below.
Between Christmas and New Year, we will dispatch orders on working days, but as ever, you need to factor in the Bank Holiday on 1st January (plus 2nd January in Scotland) when gauging when your order might arrive.
Please bear in mind that when you actually receive your order will largely depend on the backlog which has accumulated in Royal Mail depots over the holidays. As before, if you require your order urgently, then please use Next Working Day delivery at the checkout.

Last Posting Dates

Here are the last posting dates as published by Royal Mail. If you ordered after these dates then it is unlikely that your order will arrive by Christmas:

UK
Tuesday 18 December: Second Class
Thursday 20 December: First Class
Saturday 22 December: Special Delivery

Airmail
Wednesday 05 December: Asia, Far East (including Japan), Australia, New Zealand
Friday 07 December: South & Central America, Caribbean, Africa and Middle East
Monday 10 December: Eastern Europe, USA and Canada
Wednesday 12 December: Western Europe

Snorestore at ChristmasJust a v quick reminder that this week sees some important last posting dates if you want to get your Snorestore stuff before Christmas.

1) Second Class post is now no longer an option as the deadline for posting Second Class Royal Mail items was Saturday 17th December

2) First Class and First Class recorded orders must be placed by 2pm on Tuesday 20th December

3) Next Working Day (Special Delivery) orders must be placed by 2pm on Thursday 22nd December

4) If you’re taking things down to the wire, then if you use the Saturday delivery option and we receive your order by 2pm on Friday 22nd December, then your item(s) will arrive on Saturday 23rd.

5) Airmail: it’s too late now to guarantee that any items sent to Europe or beyond will arrive by Christmas. Sorry. You can still order of course, just please don’t expect your stuff to be with you by 25th December.

6) Er that’s it.

Now we’re into December, it feels we can legitimately remind you that there are only a set number of days left before Christmas a) to order your Snorestore stuff and b) to get it delivered. Don’t miss out – order sooner rather than later and keep your stress levels down.

Snorestore will be dispatching every day before Christmas up to and including Friday 23rd December. After Christmas, we will not be able to send anything until Wednesday 28th December as the two preceding days are Bank Holidays in England.

Snorestore Christmas Shipping Details

It's not too late ... yet

If you want to get your earplugs well and truly in place before the hordes of relatives (“geri mentalmen” as some would have it) descend, then you can order from Snorestore right up until 23rd December.

Royal Mail’s official last posting date for First Class items is Monday 21st December. The last date for Second Class has already passed – it was on Friday 18th.

If you do leave it until the last minute to place your order, you’ll need to select “Special Delivery” from the Snorestore Shipping options. Otherwise you might find Christmas rather less bearable than usual.
