Shipping & Delivery

Here at Tolsen Tools UK we pride ourselves on excellent customer service.

We know that you don't want to wait days for your order to arrive. That's why we send every order within the UK Mainland by using a variety of suppliers on a 2 day basis which means that, all being well, you should receive your parcel within 2 – 4 days after it has been despatched.

What's more, any order that we receive before 3:30 PM on a working day will be despatched the following day latest!

However, although we promise to despatch your order quickly, it should be remembered that delivery is not guaranteed within this timescale and parcels can occasionally take longer to reach their destinations.

Parcels sent to Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man, Isles of Scilly, the Channel Islands, certain parts of Scotland, Europe and the rest of the world will usually take a little longer to arrive.

There are certain items that we are unable to post overseas and if this is the case with any part of your order we will contact you by email.

Sometimes things go wrong, so should your order not arrive within this time scale please contact us to assist in tracking your order.
