Hospitals, hotels, schools and universities
Often, parcels sent to an office, hotel, hospital, school or university address (rather than an individual’s home) are not delivered directly to the requested recipient by our courier but to a central location, such as a reception desk.
Since the parcel may be received by anyone within the premises, we cannot take responsibility for deliveries to such locations. Once the item has been received, our part in the delivery process is complete and, sadly, we can’t influence the speed at which the parcel makes its way to the intended recipient or, indeed, whether it does so safely. We do try to help locate missing parcels within offices, hotels, hospitals, schools or universities, but the limit of our guarantee concludes with proof of delivery to the central delivery point, not the recipient. As you’ll appreciate, it’s very hard to track things down if they’re lost on these sites.
If you’re intending to send to such an address, please always contact them to find out their policies regarding deliveries. Please also source a ward name/number, room number or department to include in the delivery address. You may also wish to advise the recipient to check at the delivery point for their gift once you see it has been delivered.
If sending to a hospital patient, do check that they will still be in hospital when the gift arrives as it is very difficult to locate parcels sent for patients who have subsequently been discharged.
