Terms & Conditions
Postage, Shipping and Delivery
Shipping costs are free for orders to be delivered to a UK address. Overseas postage is calculated at checkout and will vary according to size and weight and destination. Sadly, it can be expensive to ship dog bed overseas.
Hindquarters dog collars, leads, harnesses and dog bowls, are usually dispatched via Royal Mail. Delivery of these items to UK addresses should arrive within 3 working days. International orders are sent on a tracked and signed service and should arrive within 5-8 working days, although timescales depend on local services.
Small dog beds are dispatched the next working day a 48 hour service. We aim to ship Medium and Large dog beds by courier the next working day on a 48 hour service. Large and XL dog beds might take a bit longer to pack and dispatch.
We will let you know when your order is on its way.
Please let us know if you would like delivery on a particular day or have any questions regarding your order.
International orders
We welcome international orders and the Hindquarters website is configured to accept orders from outside the UK. Shipping costs for international orders are added at point of checkout and vary according to weight, dimension and destination.
Hindquarters dog beds are bulky and shipping outside the UK is expensive, particularly larger dog bed sizes. If you live outside the UK and are looking to buy a Hindquarters dog bed then our Stuff It Yourself Dog Beds are cheaper to ship internationally. Using the same Hindquarters dog bed sizes and design, they are stuffed by you with old clothes and bedding. Your dog will get to be with you the whole time and sleep in ultimate bliss.
If you live outside the UK and have questions about ordering Hindquarters products please contact us.
Returns
We produce functional, quality products for dogs and their owners and are proud of what we make and sell. But we will not be totally satisfied until you are and so we offer a full refund or exchange (excluding package + postage costs) if you are not entirely happy with your Hindquarters product.
We operate a goodwill returns policy so just get in touch if you are not happy. Under UK law, you have 14 days from receiving your goods to cancel your order. Exchanges and refunds must be notified within 14 days of receipt and returned within a further 14 days, after this Hindquarters can refuse the right to accept a refund or exchange. This does not affect your statutory rights.
If you are not satisfied, please:
- cancel your order in writing by email to Hindquarters within 14 days of receipt letting us know reasons and whether you’d like a refund or exchange
- return the item to Hindquarters, PO BOX HQ, 46 Spenser Road, London SE24 0NR
- please ask for a proof of postage as we can’t be held responsible for anything that gets lost or damaged in transit back to us
Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any queries. Thank you.
