13. DELIVERY

13.1   We will contact you with an estimated delivery date, which will be within 30 days after the date of the Acceptance Email (the date on which we e-mail you to confirm our acceptance of your order) unless we agree a different period with you. However we will deliver the Products to you as soon as possible. Typically, if a Product is in stock we will deliver sooner than this and we normally aim to dispatch the Products as follows:

13.1.1   Countax and Toro garden tractors and John Deere products: All Countax and Toro garden tractors and John Deere products are delivered personally by one of our employees enabling a machine handover to take place in accordance with the manufacturer’s guidelines. We deliver within a 100 mile radius of our offices in Winchester, Hampshire. Deliveries to other locations might be possible by arrangement. Please contact us to discuss this.

13.1.2   All other garden tractors: All other lawn and garden tractors are delivered either on a wooden pallet or on/in a metal stillage.  They will be delivered by a lorry with a tail lift facility to enable unloading.  Please let us know if access might be a problem for a vehicle of 7.5 tonnes or greater (see below).  It is your responsibility to dispose of the packaging.  We normally dispatch garden tractors that we have in stock within 7 working days on a 2-3 day delivery service.  We will let you know if this timescale is to be significantly different, for example at particularly busy times of the year or if the Products that you have ordered are currently out of stock.

13.1.3   Other Products:  Smaller Products are delivered boxed using Ford Transit sized vehicles.  We endeavour to dispatch Products that we have in stock within 3 working days.

13.2   Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an Event Outside Our Control. See clause 20 for our responsibilities when this happens. 

13.3   Important Notice regarding Access for Deliveries.  It is your responsibility to let us know if there might be any access problems for vehicles delivering the Products that you have ordered.  Particularly when lawn and garden tractors are ordered, lorries fitted with tail lifts will be used.  Narrow lanes, low or overhanging trees, narrow entrances or the lack of a turning area are all examples of possible access problems.  Any alternative or extra delivery arrangements that might need to be made will be at your cost.

13.4   If no one is available at your address to take delivery, we will leave you a note that the Products have been returned to the carrier’s depot, in which case, the carrier will contact you to rearrange delivery.

13.5   If for any reason we are unable to deliver the Products because you refuse to take delivery or have not provided appropriate instructions, documents or authorisations, risk in the Products shall pass to you and we may store the Products until delivery, whereupon you shall be liable for all (reasonable) related costs and expenses.

13.6   Deliveries are usually made on working days only unless by prior arrangement.  Please call us for more information and pricing regarding Saturday or timed deliveries.  Any dates specified by us for delivery of the Products are intended to be an estimate only and times stated shall not be made of the essence by notice.

13.7   Delivery of an order shall be completed when we deliver the Products to the address you gave us or you or a carrier organised by you collect them from us and the Products will be your responsibility from that time.

13.8   It is strongly recommended that all packages are inspected in front of the delivery driver prior to signing for them “in good condition”.  Where this is not possible, it is suggested that Products are signed for as “unchecked” or “damaged” otherwise claims against our carriers for Products damaged in transit are unlikely to be successful.

13.9   If you have asked to collect the Products from our main trading premises you must pay for the Products at our premises at the time of collection. You can collect them from us at any time during our usual working hours.

13.10   If you do not collect the Products from us as arranged or if, after a failed delivery to you, you do not re-arrange delivery or collect them from a delivery depot we will contact you for further instructions and may charge you for storage costs and any further delivery costs.

13.11   You own the Products once we have received payment in full, including all applicable delivery charges.

13.12   A signature will be required on delivery as proof of delivery.  The delivery person may ask for assistance in unloading the Products from his/her vehicle at the destination if he/she feels that such assistance is necessary for the safe delivery of the Product.  Such assistance must be provided if requested.

13.13   For safety in transit, petrol engines will be supplied “dry”.  It is your responsibility to ensure that the engine is filled with the correct grade and quantity of engine oil. 

13.14   An adequate quantity of engine oil will be supplied free of charge with all 4-stroke engines.  Engine oil is not supplied with 2-stroke engines.

13.15   Orders made where accessories are ordered without main Product items may not be accepted or additional carriage charges may apply.

This clause 13.16 only applies if you are a consumer.

13.16   If we miss the 30 day delivery deadline for any Products (or where we have agreed a different delivery deadline with you, that deadline) then you may cancel your order straight away if any of the following apply:

13.16.1   we have refused to deliver the Products;

13.16.2   delivery within the delivery deadline was essential (taking into account all the relevant circumstances); or

13.16.3   you told us before we accepted your order that delivery within the delivery deadline was essential.

13.17   If you do not wish to cancel your order straight away, or do not have the right to do so under clause 13.16.1, you can give us a new deadline for delivery, which must be reasonable, and you can cancel your order if we do not meet the new deadline.

13.18   If you do choose to cancel your order for late delivery under clause 13.16 or clause 13.17, you can do so for just some of the Products or all of them, unless splitting them up would significantly reduce their value. If the Products have been delivered to you, you will have to return them to us or allow us to collect them, and we will pay the costs of this.  Please call customer services on 01962 892466 or email us at customerservice@mowwithus.com for a return label or to arrange collection. After you cancel your order we will refund any sums you have paid to us for the cancelled Products and their delivery.

13.19   Reasons we may suspend the supply of Products to you.  We may have to suspend the supply of a Product to:

13.19.1   deal with technical problems or make minor technical changes;

13.19.2   update the Product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; or

13.19.3   make changes to the Product as requested by you or notified by us to you (see clause 8).

13.20   Your rights if we suspend the supply of Products.  We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending supply of the Product, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency.  You may contact us to end the Contract for a Product if we suspend it, or tell you we are going to suspend it, and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for the Product in respect of the period after you end the Contract.

13.21   We may withdraw the Product.  We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing the Product. For example, where the manufacturer cease to manufacture the Product.  We will let you know as soon as possible should this occur and will refund any sums you have paid in advance for Products which will not be provided and offer you the opportunity to purchase an alternate Product.

14. INTERNATIONAL DELIVERY

14.1   We can supply Products to many countries outside the UK. If international delivery is required please call our customer services team on 01962 892466 or by post to Winchester Garden Machinery Limited, Hillier Garden Centre, Romsey Road, Winchester, Hampshire SO22 5DL.  The customer services team will provide you with a quotation in this respect and the terms and conditions applicable to such request.

14.2   You may place an order for Products from outside the UK for delivery within the UK via our site, but this order must be must be paid for via a UK issued credit/debit card with a UK billing address or by bank transfer. 

15. PRICE OF PRODUCTS AND DELIVERY CHARGES

15.1   The prices of the Products will be as quoted on our site at the time you submit your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices of Products are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. However please see clause 15.5 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of Product(s) you ordered.

15.2   Prices for our Products may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order you have already placed.

15.3   The price of a Product includes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Products in full before the change in VAT takes effect.

15.4   Our delivery charges (if any) are as advised to you during the check-out process, before you confirm your order.

15.5   Our site contains a large number of Products. It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the Products on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that:

15.5.1   where the Product's correct price is less than the price stated on our site, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Products to you; and

15.5.2   if the Product's correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Product at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing. However, if we mistakenly accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may cancel supply of the Product and refund you any sums you have paid.

22. OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS

22.1   We may transfer our rights and obligations under a Contract to another organisation, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under these Terms. We will always notify you  by posting on this webpage if this happens.

22.2   You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree in writing. However if you are a consumer and you have purchased a Product as a gift, you may transfer the benefit of the manufacturers warranty to the recipient of the gift without needing to ask our consent.  However to enable us to logistically deal with the recipient we ask that you notify us upon purchase of the name and address of the recipient.

22.3   This Contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, whether under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 or otherwise. However, if you are a consumer, the recipient of your gift of a Product will have the benefit of the manufactures warranty, but we and you will not need their consent to cancel or make any changes to these Terms.

22.4   Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

22.5   If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you. 

22.6   If you are a consumer, please note that these Terms are governed by English law. This means a Contract for the purchase of Products through our site and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive jurisdiction. However, if you are a resident of Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are a resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.

22.7   If you are a business, a Contract and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales. We both irrevocably agree that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with a Contract or its subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims).

22.8   Online dispute resolution. Online dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court.
