UK Shipping
We have two postage and packing options within the UK - Standard and Express.
Standard Shipping
Following customer feedback we've improved our prices for postage. Standard Postage is now charged on a per item basis (based on the weight of the item) with P&P prices starting as low as 50p. We have fixed the maximum charge at £4.50 per order.

This way if you're buying one or two small items your postage cost is much lower and
you'll never have to pay more than £4.50. Each item shows its P&P charge on the screen and these are totaled during checkout.

We can ship overseas - if you would like parcels to be shipped overseas please contact us before placing your order so we can calculate shipping charges. Please note, by their very nature, wooden toys can be heavy and so overseas shipping can sometimes be expensive.
