If you need to know how long it will take for your self adhesive labels to arrive, this is the post for you!
Despatch of Self-Adhesive Labels
We try to maintain a wide range of stocked label sizes and materials to allow as many of our customers as possible to purchase labels that can be despatched same day. All of the label products on our website that have a minimum order quantity of 25 SHEETS or 100 SHEETS are stocked items that are available for same day despatch from stock.
Label products with a minimum order quantity of 500 SHEETS are generally made to order items that are despatched within five working days – although standard paper labels are generally kept in stock in larger volumes so we are able to despatch orders for these items much sooner (with standard matt white permanent labels often being available for same day despatch from our warehouse stock).
Made to order items are made on a rotational basis, which means that the time it takes for your labels to be made and despatched depends on when the item(s) you have ordered next appears in the rotation schedule (which takes five working days to cycle through). If you need your labels quickly, remember you can always contact us before placing an order so that we can contact the warehouse and confirm the despatch estimate for the particular item(s) that you want to order.

Special Delivery Options For Delivery Of Self-Adhesive Labels
We offer a range of special delivery options if you need to make sure that your labels arrive in plenty of time for an upcoming deadline. These special delivery options include Royal Mail special deliveries (for next day delivery before 1pm or 9am) and timed carrier deliveries (for next day delivery before 10am, 10:30am, or 12pm).
You can request any of these special delivery options by calling our Customer Service Team; they do incur an additional shipping charge but this is the fee that the Royal Mail/carrier provider charges us and we do not add our own shipping charges onto any orders.
Small orders of between 25-200 sheets can also be upgraded to a next day delivery option (for delivery on the next working day before 1pm) during the checkout process.
