After you have placed your order you will receive a confirmation email to confirm we have received your order.

Delivery
The vast majority of our products are in stock and many available for FREE next day delivery.
UK Delivery
We make your delivery as fast and flexible as we can, with FREE DELIVERY on UK mainland orders over £45. Orders on non-web products such as spare buckets and lids costing under £45 incur a delivery charge of £4.99.
We despatch orders as quickly as possible (Monday - Friday) and we aim to deliver most orders on the next working day, as long as we receive your order before the time given in the in the product specification section under delivery. Next Day delivery orders placed over the weekend are normally despatched on Monday.
Items not available for next day delivery are usually delivered in 2-3 working days.
When we’ve despatched your order we will email you with the details and an expected delivery date.
Deliveries for Joseph Joseph, Wesco free-standing bins and most Wesco in-cupboard products are handled by DPD which normally means you’ll be given a tracked 1-hour time slot, and 'in-flight' options to change the delivery to another weekday of your choice, or to a neighbour. You can also designate a safe place to leave the package in, but please only do this if the place really is safe as this is your own responsibility and at your own risk!
Binopolis cannot be held responsible if you have requested delivery to a safe place via the DPD system, delivery of the package is recorded but then subsequently the package goes missing.
Deliveries of Brabantia products are handled by Yodel and normally take 2-3 working days. You'll receive an email from Yodel with tracking details leading to your delivery day.
Deliveries for Vauth-Sagel, Ninka, Hafele and Hailo products are handled by DX Freight or DX Express, with next day deliveries made between 8 am and 7 pm. Don't forget that if you can't be in the day following your order, you can ask us to have your bin delivered on any weekday if that's more convenient for you: let us know at the time of ordering. There are also options with these couriers to request early morning or before noon deliveries, for an additional charge, so if your delivery is urgent please call us for a quotation.
Blanco orders received by 10.00am on a weekday are normally despatched the same day (after this time the following weekday) and despatched by APC.
When your order is delivered it will need to be signed for as proof of receipt, (unless you've agreed a safe place with DPD which will be recorded). If you do miss the delivery, a card should be dropped through your door giving options for redelivery or for you to collect.
Most orders are being despatched and delivered within the delivery times given for each product (for most product 'next day delivery'). As always we work hard to deliver your order as quickly as possible. Should you experience a delay to your delivery please accept our apologies and let us know if we can help.
The Scottish Highlands and the Isle of Wight:
Please note that delivery to these locations may take 2-3 days longer than our normal delivery timings.
Please note that our premium services (before 10.00, Noon, Saturday & Sunday deliveries) are not available to these locations.
Northern Ireland:
We're happy to deliver to BT postcodes (1-95) but unfortunately the charges made by our couriers mean we have to charge a supplement of £20.00 per item. This cost is actually lower than the costs which are passed on to us. This charge will be shown at the start of the Checkout process once you have confirmed the delivery address and prior to payment. Delivery typically takes 2-4 working days.
Scottish Islands, Isle of Man, Jersey, Guernsey and the Scilly Isles:
We are happy to deliver to the above locations but regret that we have to charge £20 per item to cover the additional expenses and insurance required to deliver to non-mainland and remoter locations. This is less than the cost we are charged by the couriers. The additional charge applies to the locations (see postcodes) listed below:
JE (Jersey)
GY (Guernsey)
IM1-99 (Isle of Man)
HS1-9 (Western Isles)
KA27-28 (Isle of Arran)
KW15-17 (Orkney)
PA41-49 (Isles of Gigha & Islay)
PA60-79 (Isles of Jura, Colonsay, Mull, Iona, Tiree, Coll)
PH42-44 (Isles of Eigg, Rum, Canna)
ZE1-3 (Shetlands)
TR21-25 (Scilly Isles)
Please note that delivery to these locations may take 2-3 days longer than our normal delivery timings.
Europe & Rest of The World
We regret we unable to deliver to countries outside of the British Isles.
We are, however, happy to ship to a UK-based shipping business for onward transportation arranged by customers themselves to Europe and elsewhere in the world.
Delivery Service & Timing
Products ordered at the same time may be shipped separately.
Although our couriers nearly always achieve a delivery specified as Next Day, we can’t guarantee that an order will arrive when specified, as very occasionally there can be a delay that’s out of our control. We will always keep you informed if we’re made aware of any delays, and we will do our very best to ensure that the delivery is made as quickly as possible.
DPD deliveries may show an option to divert your order to a local Pick-up shop, but please note that this does not apply to Binopolis deliveries.
Delivery times during public holiday periods (Christmas, New Year, Easter, etc.) may be extended beyond our normal timeframe.
Neither Binopolis nor our nominated carriers will be under any liability for any delay or failure to deliver your order within the estimated time frame.
Damaged Goods
We work very closely with our suppliers and carriers to minimise potential damage to products during transit. However, accidents do occasionally happen. If the outer packaging should be damaged on delivery, please advise the courier you want to sign for it as ‘damaged’.
Please check your order within 24 hours of delivery to verify that you have the complete order and no damage has been incurred to the product in transit.
In the rare event that you find your product has been damaged in transit, please reply to your order or delivery confirmation email outlining the problem and attach photos of the damage to the product and also of the boxes in which it was delivered (whether damaged or not). Alternatively, you can email our Customer Services Team at customer.services@binopolis.com.
If you do not intend to use or fit your bin directly following receipt, please store it carefully as we cannot be held liable for damage incurred or missing components after receipt. Please retain all packaging, including the outer carton until you come to use or install the product.
Faulty Goods
In rare instances a fault may be apparent with the product. In this case please send us photos or video so that we can see the issue and ascertain if there is a fault before taking next steps to return or resolve with replacement parts etc. If the fault becomes apparent during or soon after installation, it is essential that you photograph or video what you think is faulty BEFORE uninstalling the product, so that we can see the issue because in many cases the problem can be resolved and installation successfully completed.
Returns
We offer a 28 day returns policy, which means you may return any item to us within 28 days of receipt of your order for a refund provided that the product is returned to us in a re-saleable condition. This means that:
- The product must be unused
- For in-cupboard products no attempt has been made to fit it and the screw pack unopened and any template is un-marked.
- The item is packed as when delivered with all of its original packaging intact.
- Where an item has been received double boxed, both the product box and outer packing carton must be used.
- Packing the product as originally received is essential as this protects the product on its return journey.
- If incorrectly packed, any damage incurred to the product on the return journey will mean that your refund can't be made.
How do I return an item?
If the product you have bought is unsuitable please email us at customer.services@binopolis.com. We are always happy to help customers to find an alternative product.
Once you have let us know that you wish to return an item, we will check with you that it meets the return criteria above and work with you to get the product back to the correct address using either of two return methods:
1. If you are located on the UK mainland we can arrange collection of the product by courier, on a weekday to suit you, from a home or work address for £15.00 per item. This is for your convenience and also means that the product is fully insured. The collection fee is simply deducted from your final refund total.
2. You can return the product yourself, but please ask us first for a return reference number and the correct returns address as the latter varies depending on the product. We strongly recommend using a service which fully covers the product weight and value against damage in transit.
If not on the UK Mainland you need to return the product yourself, but please ask us first for the correct returns address and a return reference number, as these do vary depending on the product. We strongly recommend using a service which fully covers the product weight and value against damage in transit.
Once we have received the goods back and they are checked as re-saleable, we will make your refund to the Card or PayPal account used for the original purchase.
Product Warranty
Most products are supplied with at least a manufacturer's 12-month parts and labour guarantee, unless otherwise stated. Some suppliers offer a 5 year or 10 Year consumer warranty and you may need to register your purchase with them to take advantage of this. Due to the vagaries of operation in commercial premises these warranties are typically restricted to 12 months or less, please contact us for specific requirements. Warranties are valid for the period stated on our website from the date of receipt of your product(s).
Manufacturers warranties exclude faults caused by your own accidental damage, neglect, misuse or error in installation.
In the case of manufacturers who operate direct product support, repairs & returns procedures, the Buyer accepts an obligation to process their claim directly through the manufacturer.
Privacy Policy
When you order from us or make an enquiry, we will need your name, address, e-mail address, phone number and other similar information to enable us to process your request, notify you of acceptance of orders and deliver the goods ordered.
We will pass information necessary to deliver your order to our suppliers and/or couriers or other agents to enable them to process the delivery of your order.
To keep you up to date with the latest developments and offers, we would like to retain your email address to advise you of new products, special offers or changes to our site. If you would not like to receive this information, please indicate your preference when placing your order.
You may "unsubscribe" at any time - just send an email to: unsubscribe@binopolis.com. Please ensure that you notify us of your preference for each e-mail address that you may have given to us.
