Important Information:  We will always try to send your parcel out the next day (Monday – Friday) however, this may not always be possible, due to stock levels or extreme hot weather.  We will try to contact you via Phone or Email to keep you updated if there is a delay in your order.

  • Orders placed before 9am Friday will be sent out for delivery on Tuesday with the exception of Bank Holidays where the delivery will be Wednesday
  • Your deliveries are packed into boxes with a double walled cardboard outer. Our packaging has been tested and is capable of keeping goods frozen for up to 48 hours in optimum conditions. This time is reduced by warmer weather. Please bear this in mind when ordering. We do not accept claims for replacement or refund if some defrosting has occurred on arrival. Please place goods into your freezer as soon as possible to avoid spoiling.  Dog Food can be defrosted and refrozen so please don’t worry if the food is defrosted as long as its still cold.

We reserve the right to stop deliveries if the weather is extremely hot.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      ORDERS & DELIVERIES

      How will my order be delivered?

      Northampton Raw Dog Food offers nationwide delivery via DPD and UK MAIL. Although our couriers don’t use frozen transport, we do pack our orders with liners and ice if needed. We cannot accept responsibility for defrosted raw food within 48 hours of delivery from our courier. We also offer local delivery via our own driver.  These will be delivered in crates that will need unpacking and returning to our driver.

      What time will my delivery be?

      Northampton Raw Dog Food use both DPD, UK MAIL and our own van for local deliveries.

      DPD & UK MAIL – Before your delivery is due, you will be notified by email/txt before the day of your delivery. On the day of delivery, you will be given a 1 hour time slot.  It is YOUR responsibility to be in for your delivery.  If you are not at the delivery address, we cannot be held responsible for your parcel and therefore will not accept any liability for the loss or replacement of your order.  You MUST NOT change the day of your delivery. If DPD can leave your parcel at a local drop off place (for example a local DPD Drop Off Shop) then they will, and they will leave a note informing you where your parcel has been left.  It is YOUR responsibility to pick the parcel up.  Remember it will not be frozen from the time it has left our shop – so the sooner you can collect, the better!

      Local – On the morning of your delivery you will receive a text confirming delivery that day.  If you want a specific day of delivery, then please write it in your notes section when placing the order.  If you are not at the delivery address, we cannot be held responsible for your delivery and therefore will not accept any liability for the loss or replacement of your order. If there is a safe place we can leave your delivery, then please also put this in your notes when placing the delivery.

      Do I have to be at home to receive my delivery?

      DPD & UK MAIL – No as long as you leave clear instructions as to where to leave the parcel. In this case this is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY

      Local Delivery – You can request the food is left in a safe place, at your own risk.

      I need to change my delivery day, can I?

      DPD & UK MAIL – No sorry, not once the order is placed

      Local – Yes, as long as the delivery hasn’t been despatched.

      Substitutions

      Substitutions will be provided in the event that the stock you have requested, is not available, at the same or greater value.  If you do not want substitutions then you MUST inform us of this by using the NOTES box in your order.

      We will endeavour to contact you on the phone number you have left on your order, however if we can not contact you then we will refund your order, in whole or part.

      Do we offer samples?

      Unfortunately, we are unable to offer samples due to the logistics involved to ensure the food arrives with you frozen.  We don’t have a minimum order which will help you try smaller orders.
       

      What is the minimum order?

      On our local van deliveries there has always been no minimum order. Our deliveries via DPD or UKMAIL have no minimum order.

      How much can I fit in my freezer?

      Depending on what brands you order, you can fit around 8kg in a standard upright freezer draw.

      Can I amend or cancel my order?

      Once orders are placed, we cannot amend it. Cancelling your order will incur a restocking fee, when your order has been picked, of £10.

      Can I change what’s in a mixed box?

      No, unfortunately all mixed boxes sold online are premixed before they arrive to us.

      Can I add on to my order?

      Once your order is placed, we cannot change your order.

      Can i order just treats?

      Of course, we don’t have a minimum order.

      My order is wrong, what do i do?

      We endeavour to make sure everything is always right. But we are only human after all. So please get in touch within 24 hours of your order being delivered. We will need this in writing along with photographs. We will address the problem immediately
