Catering Appliances / Refrigeration:

• Arctica refrigeration products are only available for delivery weekdays 8am - 5pm. See more Arctica delivery options

• Our commitment to stock ensures that many of the larger appliance products advertised on this website are available for next day delivery. However, certain appliances are not stocked directly by us. These items carry a slightly longer delivery lead time albeit most are available within 3-5 working days. Look out for the lead time symbols on these products, e.g. 3-5 days, 5-7 days etc.

• Where a product displays a small telephone symbol it has a potentially very high lead-time and you are advised to call our Customer Service line on 03701 678678 (Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm) to obtain an estimated delivery date before placing your order.

• If a product is one that is delivered directly to you by our supplier, this will be clearly shown at the checkout. Where an order has a number of products; some for standard delivery and one or more for non-standard (direct) delivery, this will be clearly indicated at the checkout stage. A member of our customer service staff will contact you via phone or email to advise you on delivery date of your non-stocked item.

• Please note larger appliances can be delivered to UK mainland only. Please call us for more details before ordering. Please note also that some suppliers of larger appliance products will charge a restocking fee if a product is returned and we will recharge this to the customer.

• Please note that customers are responsible for ensuring that appliance products ordered will fit through doorways and into the delivery premises.

• Delivery of appliance products does not include unpacking or installation. If you are interested in getting a quote for installation and/or demonstration of a large appliance product, please contact our Customer Service line on 03701 678678 who will happy to help.
