Quantity Estimates

Subject to prior agreement in writing, we will not provide any on-site services for you. Any estimate of the quantity of Goods required by you prepared by us is for guidance only and will be based on information provided by you to us. Any such estimate does not constitute an offer capable of acceptance and we accept no liability for the accuracy thereof. When providing an estimate, we do not include any allowance for additional materials, for wastage or installation and you must check the estimate prior to ordering from us. If the estimate is inaccurate or the form of services or the terms of engagement under which the estimate is provided change in any manner, then we reserve the right to vary or amend the estimate as we see fit. 

Delivery

Delivery dates or times mentioned on our website and product delivery information or acknowledgement of order or elsewhere are estimates made in good faith and not of contractual effect and we shall not be liable to you for any failure to deliver on any particular date or dates, or at any particular time, nor shall time be made of the essence by you giving us notice.

Delivery will occur when you take possession of the goods or when the goods are ready for unloading at the delivery address.

Where we, or our agents, deliver to site it is on the understanding that there is a suitable road to the point on the site where delivery is requested. If no such road exists delivery will be made to the nearest point to which, in the opinion of the driver, the vehicle can safely proceed and unload. Deliveries are to the kerbside only. Except for use of a vehicle mounted crane, you will provide all necessary labour and equipment required to unload materials promptly and will indemnify us against any cost, claim, loss or damage arising from unloading and or delivery save insofar as such claims, costs, losses or expenses relate to liability for death or personal injury. Due to insurance, we are unable to enter on to private property.

If you keep our delivery vehicle waiting for an unreasonable period of time or if we are obliged to return without affecting delivery a justifiable additional charge may be made that reflects the additional cost to us.

If you refuse or fail to take delivery of goods tendered in accordance with your order or we are unable to deliver the goods because you have not provided appropriate instructions, you shall pay us any additional costs or carriage incurred by us.

All deliveries must be received and signed for by a person over the age of 18. If no-one is available to take the delivery, we will leave details at the address to rearrange delivery. We may need to make an additional handling charge for redelivery. Should no-one be available to take the redelivery we may cancel the order and refund your money, excluding any delivery charges.

All delivery times are provided in good faith but are estimates only. ABC Depot may not be held liable for any failure to deliver by a stated time or date or any consequential loss resulting from late deliveries. 

Storage

Where we have notified you that the Goods are ready for delivery, you shall take delivery or arrange for storage. If you do not “as arranged” take delivery or arrange for storage within 7 days of notification, we shall be entitled to invoice and be paid for the Goods as though the Goods had been duly delivered in accordance with these instructions and we may arrange storage either at our own premises or elsewhere on your behalf and all charges for storage, insurance and demurrage shall be payable by you. 

Risk

The risk in the goods shall pass to you upon delivery and you will then be responsible for them. 

Faulty Goods

If a refund, repair or exchange is refused we reserve the right to charge you any collection costs.

Nothing in this clause is intended to affect your statutory rights or your rights as a consumer.

If any goods develop a fault after 28 days following delivery and where the manufacturer has provided a helpline, repair service or warranty, you should contact the manufacturer direct. We will have no obligation to provide any refund or assistance after the 28 days following delivery.
