We have an established network of National and International freight operators.  The freight operator or courier will be assigned depending on the best delivery quote provided based on the weight of items and delivery location.  If you are ordering from a country outside our listed range, we can contact you with the best quote available. In such an instance you can proceed to checkout without delivery. You can then send us payment via Paypal or call us with your credit card details for delivery separately, once we have confirmed the delivery quote to you. You could  also arrange a courier collection yourself if preferred, please state this when ordering.
