How are the jugs packaged?
The jugs are packed individually in brown mail order boxes, with two inners to keep the jugs in place within the box. The boxes have been drop-tested for breakage.
What happens if my jug arrives damaged?
Please call us immediately and if possible email us a photo of the damaged jug. The jug will of course, be replaced at no charge.
What happens if my jug is faulty?
Whilst every effort is made during the packing process to spot faulty jugs, unfortunately a very few get through the QC department. If your jug is faulty, please call us or email us. We will need the packer’s details, which can be found on a small round white sticker on the base of the jug, and ideally a photograph. Any faulty jug will be replaced.
Can I get a delivery quicker than your standard delivery?
We usually send out single jugs using Royal Mail 2nd Class post and multiple orders on a 48hr courier delivery service. If you require anything quicker please call to upgrade to 1st Class post or Next Day delivery.
Is next day delivery available?
Yes we can offer a Next Day service, but we will need your call before midday. The cost of a Next Day Royal Mail delivery for a single Gluggle Jug is £11.15. This excludes Saturday delivery which is £16.38
Is it possible to post the jugs abroad?
We can obtain quotes to ship overseas, but the purchaser will be liable as we cannot insure them.
Do you offer a discount for multiple purchases or on the postage rates?
It depends, on the amount purchased and whether the jugs are being sent to the same address. Please call us and we can discuss your requirements over the telephone.
Is there a gift wrapping service available?
How do I care for the jugs?
We recommend that the jugs are washed by hand. They can be occasionally put in the dishwasher, however, frequent washing in the dishwasher may affect the glaze. If using a dishwasher, please ensure the area inside the tail is properly rinsed out before use.
Where are the jugs made?
All the jugs are made in the UK, and are hand crafted in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, by Wade Ceramics, with the exception of the Hand-painted UK Flags, Hand-painted Greens and Cockerels.
