Covid-19 Update - Despatch, Delivery & Collection Info - Brexit
Covid-19
Our services remain unchanged. Our expert sales and customer service staff are available to take your calls, emails and chats as usual. We continue to support all of your parts needs.
It is still recommended that you continue to wear a face covering in crowded and enclosed spaces where you may come into contact with other people you do not normally meet. If you're planning on visiting us in person, please be aware that we still request that you wear a face covering in our shop at all times unless you are exempt.
Despatch & Delivery
We are currently despatching
Standard UK orders within 1-3 working days and
Standard Export within 2-4 working days.
Due to carrier capacity issues, not all
Express services are guaranteed, although most arrive within the usual timescales.
All International Airmail has been affected by the reduced amount of international flights, although this has been steadily improving. It has led however to increased surcharges and delays in some cases. A significant amount of the world’s Airmail (small packets) has been travelling by sea container. For most countries outside the EU it is not cost effective currently (being the same cost as a carrier service), so we have removed Airmail as a shipping option (in some cases) for the time being and replaced it with a carrier service to avoid delays & disappointment. There have also been some in-country backlogs which contribute to these delivery delays.
Click & Collect
Our
‘Click & Collect’ service will continue as a permanent addition to our overall service. If you want to order parts and you need to collect them in person, please select this service. We will email you when your order is ready to collect, usually within
60 minutes. Payment can be made upon collection via chip and pin. Please park in the Click & Collect marked bays right outside the showroom entrance. There is a phone number to call if you prefer to wait in your vehicle.
For
Pre-Paid orders placed online or on the telephone, we need at least
2.5 hour’s notice prior to collection. This is to allow the order to be processed in our system, picked by our team and prepared for you. Please do not arrive early! If you are collecting an order and require further details, please call ahead (01522 568000).
We are able to accommodate limited numbers of
walk-in customers who have not pre-ordered into the shop. Please follow our onsite rules which include a request to wear face coverings and use of hand gel. Please help to protect yourself and our staff by following any instructions given to you by our team. If you have a considerable list of parts required, please pre-order these online or on the phone using our 'Click & Collect' service as detailed above. This will help prevent long waiting times for all customers. Rimmer Bros continue to operate a reduced on site workforce, we appreciate your patience.
