| What you are ordering | Up to 50 miles from Manchester | 50 to 150 miles from Manchester | 150 to 250 miles from Manchester | 250 to 300 miles from Manchester |

Over 300 miles from Manchester, the islands and Northern Ireland are quoted one by one rather than off this table: message us on WhatsApp or email info@metafloors.co.uk and we will price it by hand. Collecting from us in Manchester is free from anywhere. You see the exact figure for your own order once you put your postcode in at checkout.
Every order pays one delivery charge, set by the hardest to ship item in it, not by how many items there are. Ten boxes of flooring cost the same to deliver as one, and adding a length of beading to a pallet order adds nothing. Collecting from us in Manchester is always free.
Free samples are posted for £5.50. The samples themselves cost nothing, and a basket of samples on its own goes by Sample Post at £5.50 rather than our usual delivery charge. Order them alongside flooring and they travel with it, so there is one charge for the whole order and not two. Manchester Collection is free either way. See our free samples page.
Dispatch & timings
Orders placed before 1pm on a working day are typically dispatched the same day. Delivery estimates are from the point of dispatch, not the point of order. We'll send tracking details by the time your order is on its way.
Timings are estimates and can occasionally be affected by the courier, bank holidays or bad weather. For larger or heavier flooring orders we may use a pallet courier, who will usually contact you to arrange a delivery slot.

Returns & your right to cancel
We want you to be happy with what you've ordered. Under the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations you have the right to cancel most online orders within 14 days of receiving them, and a further 14 days to send the goods back to us.
On top of your statutory rights, we accept returns of unused, unopened items in their original condition and packaging for up to 30 days. To start a return, message us on WhatsApp or email with your order number and we'll walk you through it.
Please note
- Return postage is your responsibility unless the item is faulty or we sent the wrong thing.
- We recommend a tracked service: we can only refund goods we actually receive back.
- Cut, fitted or made-to-measure items can't be returned unless faulty, as they're prepared specifically for you.
- Please keep flooring and panels in their original packaging until you're sure you're keeping them.
Damaged or faulty items
Please check your order on arrival. If anything is damaged in transit, incorrect, or develops a fault, contact us within a reasonable time with a few photos and your order number. We'll sort a replacement or refund, including any delivery costs where the fault is ours. This does not affect your statutory rights.
Refunds
Once we've received and checked your returned items, we'll process your refund to the original payment method, usually within 5–7 working days. We'll refund the price of the goods (and the original delivery charge where you're returning your whole order under the right to cancel).
