NOTICE: Royal Mail Industrial Strike Action 2023

Unfortunately, due to unavoidable Royal Mail industrial strike action across the UK, we are unable to guarantee delivery on such occasions. Planned strike action can be found on Royal Mail's website. As a guide, we suggest you add 1-2 working day to your order in the event of any action that occurs throughout the year. We suggest you plan the timing of your purchase in advance due to such events, and avoid any disappointment.

For example, if you order an item on Tuesday using Express Delivery and there's a strike on Wednesday - your item would be expected to be delivered to you by Thursday or Friday. The same applies to Standard Delivery options (add an extra 1-2 working days). 

Thank you for your understanding. The Bees team despatch 99% of parcels on time and ensure all items are despatched with tracking, insurance and proof of delivery. 

 If you have any concerns about delivery times and dates, please reach our team directly on 020 8470 0600 and we will be happy to assist you.
