We bill you for your first week’s deliveries on the day you set up a repeat weekly order. Your weekly billing cycle is dictated by your first delivery day, so if your first delivery is a Wednesday, your week is Wednesday to Tuesday.

Example: Repeat weekly order
For example, if you set up a repeat order on Monday 14th, and your first delivery is Wednesday 16th, you will be billed immediately for all orders delivered from Wednesday 16th to Tuesday 22nd.

Weekly payment cycle
We will then bill you for the following week’s deliveries, three days in advance of the first delivery day of that week. Any additional repeat weekly orders will be billed immediately, and then added to the weekly billing cycle the following week.

Example continued: weekly payment cycle
The second week’s deliveries will start on Wednesday 23rd, so you will be billed on Sunday 20th. This means you will be billed twice within a week initially, and then once a week every Sunday from then on.

Reason for three-day advance payment
This three-day advance gives you some leeway if your payment fails for any reason, such as the bank rejecting your payment. If this happens, we will try to take payment again over the three days leading up to delivery. If we still can’t take payment, we will have to cancel your delivery.

We’re on a mission to reduce plastic waste, and want to provide as many options to customers as possible so they can help us with our mission. While all our milk is held to extremely high standards, some customers are committed to only buying products with official organic accreditation. So we’ve added the organic accredited milk line so they too can also join us in our fight against waste.

We have high standards when it comes to quality and freshness, so we take this very seriously. Please use the contact form to get in touch and select 'product query' from the dropdown menu.

We’re sorry you received the wrong item. You can choose between an immediate refund for the item you didn't receive or arrange a redelivery on one of your next three delivery days. Please keep the incorrect item or give it away, as we'd rather it didn't go to waste.

Report your issue:

• Select the date and delivery you have an issue with
• Select the 'Report an Issue' button and follow the on-screen instructions

If your order is showing as skipped/rejected, we’ve already credited your account.

It's often dark when we deliver, so this can sometimes happen if they can't see them or the van is full. Please leave your empties out regularly to avoid them piling up, and make sure they are in plain sight for your milkie. We'll do our best to collect them on your next delivery.

You can still amend your order once payment has been taken. If you add items to your repeat weekly order, there will be an additional charge on your next bill. If you delete items from your repeat weekly order, your account will be credited and this will be deducted off your next bill. If you wish to add a 'One Time' order, you will be charged immediately for this.

At the moment, all free range UK hens are currently being housed indoors on government veterinary advice to keep them safe from avian influenza. This means all free range eggs are now labelled as barn eggs for the foreseeable future. But please know, our hens are still receiving the highest levels of animal welfare. The farms we work with are audited to high standards every year. As well, the farms we work with are required to ‘respect and commit to promoting ethical animal welfare practices, with a focus on the five freedoms. All animals will benefit from freedom from thirst, discomfort, pain, injury or disease, fear and distress, and have the freedom to behave naturally.’ You’ll now find a “2UK” stamped on your eggs, which means they are barn eggs.
