Shipping & Returns
Delivery Times & Methods
We aim to dispatch all items within 2-3 working days of receiving your order. Please note that during peak periods (i.e in the run up to Christmas) dispatch may be delayed, however your order will be dispatched within 5 working days.
We send the majority of orders via Royal Mail on a standard 2nd class service. Please note that items sent via 2nd class mail should arrive within 2-3 working days of dispatch, however this is not a guaranteed delivery date service and during peak times delivery may take a little longer.
Large or heavier orders (generally orders over £50 in value or 2kg in weight) will be dispatched via a courier service. This will be a tracked service and tracking information will be made available to you after your order has been dispatched by us.
Our standard postage charge is £3.99 for orders under £30. We offer free mainland UK postage on all orders over £30.
Prices quoted are for UK mainland addresses. Delivery to parts of Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Scottish Highlands and Islands, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and the Isle of Wight may incur an additional postage cost to the customer. We will contact you if there will be an extra cost on your order.
We have a 28-day return policy, which means you have 28 days after receiving your item to request a return.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, un-opened. You’ll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.
To start a return, you can contact us at debra@hampshiresoap.com. If your return is accepted, we’ll send you a return shipping label, as well as instructions on how and where to send your package. Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted.
You can always contact us for any return question at debra@hampshiresoap.com.
Damages and issues
Please inspect your order upon reception and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item, so that we can evaluate the issue and make it right.
Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns on sale items or gift cards.
Exchanges
The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for the new item.
Return & Exchange Policy
