Postage and Packing

We can only accept orders for delivery to the United Kingdom.  

We will always do our best to process your order within five working days after the order is placed. However, unforeseen circumstances can arise that are beyond our control.   All delivery timescales should be taken as a guideline and not a guarantee.

Otter Pups are only given to the courier on a Monday-Thursday.

If you would like your order to be delivered for a specific day, please state this in the Customer Notes on check out.  This is not guaranteed but we will do our best to achieve as close to the date as possible.

We can only arrange deliveries for Monday – Friday (excluding Bank Holidays).

Delivery is included in the price to postcodes in England and Wales, and lowland Scotland.  For other areas of the UK please see below where a surcharge will be charged.

Delivery to a different address

We are able to send packages to a different address from the billing address, however the entire order will be sent to the alternative address.  If you wish to send to two different addresses you will need to place two separate orders.  Please insert a destination phone number in the Customer Notes on check out for use by the courier during delivery.

If you are sending a package as a gift please complete the Customer Notes on check out.  An invoice will not be included in the package.

Delivering to an address when there is no-one there

If there is no-one available at the delivery address when the package arrives the courier will leave a card stating that they tried to deliver and try again the following working day unless you get in touch with them to re-arrange the delivery.  If you have requested that the package is left in a secure place (garden shed, garage etc) then the package will be left at your own risk and is not Otter Brewery or our courier’s responsibility.
