Terms & Conditions

1. Delivery

We aim to ship your UK purchase via our delivery partner, DHL, with the goal of next working day arrival for orders placed by 5 pm. However, please allow up to 3 working days for delivery, as delays may occur beyond our or our couriers' control.

Important Notes:
  • We only ship orders from Monday to Friday. We do not process or deliver orders on Bank Holidays. During busy periods, such as Christmas, delivery times may be extended.
  • If you haven't received your order within 3 working days of receiving a shipping notice, please contact us [here].
  • A Pre-10:30 AM delivery service is available at a surcharge of £10.00 per order. This service is limited to certain postcodes, so please check availability before placing your order.
  • Free shipping does not apply to the following postcodes: AB*, FK*, DD*, AD*, PH*, IV*, KO*, HS*, BT*, KA*, KY*, PA*. Certain parts of Scotland may not be eligible for next-day delivery.
  • Alcohol will only be delivered in accordance with the specific arrangements made with the customer. Alcohol can only be delivered to a residential or business address, and you must be over 18 to make a purchase. It is illegal for anyone under 18 to purchase or attempt to purchase alcohol, or for anyone over 18 to purchase alcohol for someone under 18. Customers will be required to confirm they are at least 18 years old when placing an order for alcohol.
  • Once DHL has received the package, Dry Drinker is not responsible for delivery times.

Courier Deliveries:

Deliveries occur Monday to Friday, typically between 8 am and 4 pm. During busy periods, deliveries may extend beyond these hours. Please ensure someone is available to accept your delivery during these hours. If a delivery is delayed, it is still the customer's responsibility to ensure that someone is present to receive the order. Dry Drinker is not responsible for stolen packages, and refunds will not be issued for such incidents.

'Leave Safe' Instructions:

Our couriers require a signature upon delivery. If you request a parcel to be left without a signature (e.g., in your shed or outside your front door), you accept liability for any loss if the parcel goes missing. If you are unavailable when the parcel is delivered, a card with the courier's contact details will be left for you to arrange a new delivery slot or collect the parcel from your local depot. Please note that you cannot change the delivery address after a delivery job has been booked without incurring a new delivery charge.

2. Returns & Order Checking

We ask all customers to check their orders within 24 hours of delivery. Claims made after this period cannot be rectified, and refunds will not be issued.

  • If an item is missing from your order, please send us a photo of what you received in the original packaging.
  • You may cancel your order for any reason within 14 calendar days from the delivery date, provided all bottles are unopened and intact. The cost of postage and the safe return of the goods is the customer’s responsibility. We will refund the full price of the products ordered, minus any discounts and delivery charges, within 14 days of cancellation or receipt of returned goods, whichever is later.
  • Claims for non-delivery must be made within 7 working days of the delivery date. For any questions, please contact us.
  • Customers are fully responsible for postage costs when returning products. A minimum of 10 unopened products must remain. This policy does not apply to goods that have been opened, as we do not offer credits or refunds for opened items. Ensure you check the contents of each box within 24 hours of delivery to confirm all items are correct. Failure to do so may result in a refund being denied. If damage has occurred, please take a photo clearly showing our branding and the shipping label, and email it as part of your claim here.

3. Refunds

Our products are non-refundable. However, if you receive a defective product, you are entitled to a full refund. To arrange this, please contact us here. If the defect involves breakage, you must take photos of the packaging and the broken product, and email them along with your order number. Without this evidence, a refund or replacement will not be offered.
