Terms and Conditions

You may copy and save or print the terms outlined below for your reference.

www.artificialgreen.co.uk is a trading name of Arti Garden Ltd.

1.LEAD TIMES

Delivery lead times vary for different products and are stated on each product page. If we receive an order and we believe that the stated lead time will be exceeded, we will contact the customer to inform them accordingly. Customers place orders in the knowledge that there are logistical risks associated to mail order transactions which can mean that indicated lead times can sometimes be breached. An example of such risks includes (but is not exclusively limited to) courier delivery mistakes and missed deliveries for which Arti Garden Ltd accepts no liability of loss in such circumstances. 

For orders of bespoke / made to order items, we cannot accept liability for any manufacturing delays by third party manufacturers which are beyond our control. Lead times given are a guide to which the manufacturers we use give to us. 

2.DELIVERY CHARGES

Please read our delivery page: https://www.artificialgreen.co.uk/pages/delivery

WHERE WE DELIVER TO

Our principle delivery operation is for mainland UK. We welcome enquiries from customers based elsewhere, where delivery prices are offered on a quotation basis.

PALLET DELIVERIES

Items arriving on a pallet will be delivered to the address kerbside or nearest door/access point if this is logistically possible and under the discretion of the delivery courier. Artificial Green and our suppliers use external delivery couriers, therefore we cannot expect (nor is it the responsibility of) delivery drivers to assist you with the moving and handling of your items into houses, doorways, outbuildings or garages etc. When ordering multiple, large or bulky items, please ensure you are able to handle these items when delivery is received.

2.1 FAILED DELIVERY If the courier attempts to deliver your order but you are not available to take the delivery, a second attempt will be made. If however you are still not available to take delivery again. The order will be returned to us and re delivery charges will apply should you still require the item. The re delivery charge must be paid before delivery will be scheduled again. 

3. DAMAGES

Courier damage can happen from time to time, so you must check items before signing for the delivery. If it not possible to inspect items upon delivery, please sign for your delivery as 'UNCHECKED'. This way, we are able to make an insurance claim with the courier. Customers have 48 hours from the point of delivery to report any damaged goods within their consignment/s to us. 

4. MISSING ITEMS

Customers have 48 hours from the point of delivery to report any missing items and/or components from their consignment/s

5. RETURNS - STANDARD STOCK ITEMS

CUSTOMERS CAN RETURN STOCK ITEMS WITHIN 14 DAYS

Customers have 14 days after the day they receive goods in which to return items should they change their mind within this cooling off period.

Please contact us by email or telephone to advise us of your intention to return and we will issue instructions for the particular product you are referring to. When exercising this right to return the customer agrees that they are returning the goods in the new condition in which they were received.

The customer is responsible for and bears the cost of the return delivery and logistical arrangements. Do not forget to include your order number, name, address and telephone number. We cannot be responsible for any item that fails to reach us, so we recommend you use a courier that offers a tracked service to return your parcel. Please ensure to keep all boxes and packaging as we cannot accept a return without them. Items returned must be in a new and unused condition with all packaging included. All returns are checked by us before a refund is issued. We cannot accept returned goods that are not in saleable condition.

Some large items may incur higher courier costs due to size and weight. We therefore suggest you consider this before ordering large items.

6. RETURNS - BESPOKE ITEMS / MADE TO ORDER ITEMS, BULKY GOODS

Returns are not accepted on bespoke or made-to-order goods. Items listed as 'Made to Order' are made bespoke specifically for your order, therefore these items are exempt from the 14 day cooling off period and cannot be returned. Made to order items include Boxwood hedges, boxwood ball planters and our coloured GRP planters. You may not cancel an order made for bespoke / made to order items once an order has been confirmed, accepted by us and production started. 

Bulky and palletised standard stock items are returnable by standard regulations, although customers should be aware that the logistics costs associated to returns can be considerably higher than goods of average weight and volume.

We recommend you ensure you are 100% sure you wish to purchase a larger item before you place your order. 

RETURNS - DAMAGED AND FAULTY ITEMS

If a product arrives in a damaged state, we will exchange or refund once the product is returned. The customer must inform us of damage or manufacturing fault within 24 hours of receiving the product. In case of courier damage we recommend you sign for your delivery as 'UNCHECKED'. This means we will be able to claim against the courier for damaged items.

7. PAYMENTS AND REFUNDS

Payments are processed securely via Shopify Secure Payments or the buyer may pay by bank transfer. No payment details are kept on our system. Orders for products only will not be processed until payment is received in full. 

Installations: For orders whereby installation is required, invoices must be paid in full on the day of installation.

A returns fee of up to 15% may be deducted from your refund for costs incurred by us, once goods have been returned and inspected.

9. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT THE CANCEL OR DECLINE ANY ORDERS WHICH FAIL FRAUD PREVENTION TESTS
