Drip Hive Shipping Policy

At Drip Hive, our priority is to provide every customer with a smooth and enjoyable shopping experience. A key part of this is ensuring your orders are processed and delivered quickly, efficiently, and safely.

 Order Processing & Delivery

Processing Time: All orders are processed within 1–2 working days after purchase.  
Delivery Time (UK): Orders typically arrive within 1–5 working days after dispatch.

We offer express delivery, and once your order has been shipped, you will receive tracking information so you can follow your parcel every step of the way.

All items are carefully packaged to ensure they arrive in perfect condition.

Working days do not include weekends or UK bank holidays.

Shipping Costs

Shipping costs are calculated at checkout.  
You will always see the full delivery price before confirming your order.

Tracking

Once your order has been dispatched, tracking details will be sent via email or SMS, depending on the details provided at checkout.

Delivery Delays

While we aim to meet all delivery estimates, delays can occasionally occur due to:

High order volumes  
Courier issues  
Weather or external disruptions  

If your order is delayed, we will keep you informed and work to resolve any issues quickly.

International Shipping

We ship internationally from the United Kingdom.

Delivery times may vary depending on the destination, customs clearance, and local courier services.

Customs, Duties & Taxes

International orders may be subject to:

Import duties  
Customs fees  
Local taxes  
Handling charges  

These charges are not included in your order total and must be paid by the customer.

We have no control over these charges and cannot estimate them.

Refused Shipments

If a customer:

Refuses to pay customs fees  
Fails to respond to courier or customs requests  
Provides incorrect delivery information  

The customer is made liable not us

 Returned Parcels

If a parcel is returned due to:


Incorrect address  
Failed delivery attempts  

Refunds will only be processed once the item has been returned to us.

Deductions may include shipping and handling costs.

Lost or Delayed Parcels

We are not responsible for delays caused by customs or courier services.

If a parcel is confirmed lost:

A refund or replacement will be issued after the courier investigation is completed.

Lost or Stolen After Delivery

Once an order is marked as delivered, responsibility transfers to the customer.

We are not liable for parcels that are:

Lost or stolen after delivery

Customers are responsible for providing accurate delivery details and ensuring a secure delivery location.

 Customer Responsibility

By placing an order, you agree that:

You are responsible for any customs charges

You accept the terms regarding refunds and returns  

 

International Orders 

All international orders are final sale.

Due to the additional costs and complexities involved in international shipping, customs and returns, we do not accept returns or exchanges on any international orders.

By placing an international order, the customer acknowledges and agrees that the order is final sale and cannot be returned or exchanged.
