Delivery of Goods
4.1 Areas with postcodes starting with IV, KW, AB, PH, DD, PA, KY, FK, KA, ML, EH, DG, TD, HS, ZE & BT may attract a surcharge from our couriers. Should your order require a surcharge we will contact our couriers for the best price and will hold your order until we confirm a price.
4.2 Although you may enter a delivery address that differs from the cardholders address, for anti-fraud reasons we reserve the right to deliver to the cardholders address on your first order, We will notify you of this change and may require further identification to proceed with your order.
4.3 We will endeavour to deliver your goods as soon as possible and will try to meet your delivery instructions. We will make every effort to deliver your goods within the time stated on our website but we will not be liable or offer any compensation for any loss caused to you by late delivery.
4.4 If you refuse a delivery without prior consent from Gala Tent Ltd or wish to cancel your order after despatch, then you have broken your legally binding contractual agreement to accept delivery of the goods you have purchased. You will be liable for the delivery and return of delivery costs along with a the banking 3.5% transaction and refund fee plus a £10 administration fee.
4.5 Premium deliveries, i.e. AM and Saturday services, carry a surcharge. A third party company handles our deliveries and we cannot offer a 100% guarantee that deliveries will arrive on time(Please Note that the couriers will allow 15 minutes past the hour to complete the delivery). We will however refund the surcharge should it fail to reach you by the agreed time. You will still be expected to accept the late delivery, as this is not a guaranteed service. (rule 4.4 would apply if you refuse delivery)
4.6 If you do not receive your goods within the stated delivery period please contact us by email and we will contact our couriers on your behalf, alternatively we will give you your consignment number for you to use our online tracking system to monitor your delivery.
4.7 It is your responsibility to check the condition of the goods upon delivery before signing for them. If the goods appear damaged please state this on the delivery documentation “goods arrived damaged” this will help us to make claims on your behalf from the couriers should the item prove to be beyond repair. If you sign for a 'clean bill of delivery' or 'unchecked', any insurance claims against the courier for damage in transit will be void.
4.8 Items you order from Gala Tent Ltd may sometimes be sent in more than one delivery, even if you've requested that you receive them all together. For example, you may receive multiple deliveries if your order contains an oversized item that needs to be dispatched separately or at a later date. Regardless of the number of deliveries you receive, you will only be charged the amount that was originally quoted to you at the time you placed your order. (unless there are multiple delivery addresses or has been agreed otherwise)
4.9 If for any reason there will be no one home to accept your delivery you can leave a signed note, which the couriers need to take as proof of delivery, instructing them to leave your goods in a 'safe' place. By doing so you are accepting a 'clean bill of delivery' as Gala Tent Ltd will be unable to make a claim on your behalf if the parcel is stolen or has been damaged in transit.
4.10 Due to the size of certain items, on rare occasions it may be necessary to assist the delivery driver to unload your goods.
4.11 Pallet deliveries will be attempted once only free of charge. If the delivery fails for any reason it will be the customers responsibility to cover the costs.
4.12 Once goods have been delivered we ask you to check the boxes and contents to ensure that you have received everything. We also ask you to check that you have received the correct items. If you need a checklist please contact customer services and we will be happy to assist. Any shortages or incorrect items need to be reported within 14 days of receipt of the delivery, we may be unable to help with reports after this time.

Duty Payments
5.1 All goods are shipped from the United Kingdom, where Gala Tent Ltd is based. If your delivery address is outside the United Kingdom, you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are charged when the shipment reaches your country. Any such additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you. You should note that customs policies vary widely from country to country; Gala Tent Ltd advises each customer to contact their local customs office for further information. Please note that cross-border shipments are often subject to inspection by customs authorities.
5.2 IMPORTANT NOTE: You may also be responsible for payment of import duties to your local authority. Please note that for many countries, we are required to declare the total value of goods shipped, even when that order is a gift.
5.3 These charges are often collected by your Postal Service and may be described by them as "Postal Charges". If you decide not to pay these charges, then your order will be returned to Gala Tent Ltd in due course. Our returns policy dictates that we can only refund you when we receive the goods. (rule 4.4 would apply)
5.4 Unfortunately, the actions of individual customs authorities are out of our control, the purchaser is responsible and we accept no liability for their actions.

Please note that if you fail to take reasonable care of the goods Gala Tent Ltd reserves the right to refuse return. Before you send any items back you need to contact customer services and arrange a returns number. Any goods returned to us without a returns number will be refused.

6.14 If you place an order then later have a change of heart and wish to cancel, and your order has been processed but not despatched, then cancelled orders will be subject to a banking 3.5% Transaction and refund Fee plus a £10 administration fee. (see rule 4.4 if goods have been despatched)
6.15 If at any point the customer wishes to cancel a bespoke order (i.e. Printing Services, Modular Fusion Gala Tent(s), Gala Shade(s), Pagoda(s) or any other specialist manufactured goods), then the 30% deposit will be non refundable. If payment has been made in full then you will only be entitled to a 70% refund, as transaction fees systems work will have already been carried out on your behalf. However we reserve the right to refuse your request for refund when full payments have been made when manufacturing bespoke work upon your instructions. If other payment terms have been agreed then you would still be liable to pay for the goods you have ordered in full if you decide to cancel and any stage of production, or a minimum of 30% of the cost of the total order would be mandatory (see rule 1.4)
6.15.1 If you have placed an order for a stock item we can provide a storage holding pen for up to 30 days, you must accept delivery after this time has expired, as storage is a very costly process. If we have stored your order for over 30 days and you them decide to cancel the order then we will refund your account less 30% of the total order. If you would like us to store your item(s) further then we can offer a quotation for this service depending on the size of your order.
6.16 If you are a hire company you are limited to a 30 day warranty before use with any purchase due to the third party nature of your business. We advise you take commercial insurance for any maintenance/damages. (click here for insurance details)
