Do you deliver on Sundays?

Yes, Flower Station delivers flowers seven days a week, including Sundays, in any London postcode or area (North, North West, West, South West, South East, East, West Central and East Central). Sunday and Monday delivery for rest of UK is not available. You may call us and we will at our discretion attempt to find a florist on your behalf that can deliver flowers outside of London on Sundays and Mondays (minimum spend £40).

Can I request a specific time delivery?

Yes, however we may charge you more for time specific service. 

Do you deliver flowers to business addresses?

Yes and we understand the importance of getting there in time. We put a high emphasis on business address deliveries.

Can I send flowers to a hospital?

Most London hospitals will accept flowers. Please make sure you fill in all the details correctly and provide us with patients or staff name, the ward they are staying in as well as the room number if applicable.

When will my flowers arrive?

If you have booked our free Same Day Anytime option then our delivering times are between 9 am and 5 pm. We will try to deliver as soon as possible depending on the volume of orders we receive. 

What happens if there is no one at home when you try to deliver flowers?

If the recipient is not at home, we will attempt to call the number provided. If that is not available we will look to leave the flowers safe with the neighbour, outside the property and leave a note through the door. 

It is the responsibility of the sender to ensure the recipient of the delivery is at home to receive their items. If we attempt a delivery and the recipient is not at home we will leave the package in the safest place possible, this is down to the sole discretion of the driver. We will always leave a delivery note with details on where the delivery package was left. Once we have delivered the item to the delivery address its safety is no longer our responsibility rather that of the sender.

 

I need flowers urgently, in the next one hour. Can I have them delivered?

This is not something we tend to do, but should it really be a matter of urgency, we can attempt to organise a minicab instantly and have the flowers leave our premises within 30 minutes. So, yes we can. Note: This is not a guaranteed service and extra fees apply.

Can I track my order?

You can use online messaging system to stay in touch or call our customer services for support or why not call us?

Please note we do not deliver Nationwide on Sundays and Mondays. (If you are worried you have missed the deadline, why not email or call us and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can).   

I found a note in my door saying ‘we tried to deliver flowers but you were not in’. What do I do now?

Simply give us a call and arrange re-delivery of your flowers. Please note, if no-one is home, we have a £5 charge to re-deliver a fresh bouquet of flowers. You can also pick up the bouquet at our Baker Street branch at no extra cost.

Can you deliver flowers after 5 pm and during the night?

Yes, our flower shop is open 24 hours a day and we can deliver at any time. Please note our delivery drivers finish at 7 pm so we may have to book a minicab.

Complaints

I have not received my flowers. What can I do?

A.  Give our customer services a call. Please quote your order number, if not available then delivery date and delivery postcode. There can be many reasons as to why the flowers should not have been delivered. Not necessarily Flower Station at fault.

My flowers came without a message or note saying who the flowers are from. Why?

A.  At times, the sender does actually request for the flowers to be sent without the message or a signature. We cannot disclose that information unless we are approved by the sender.

Why are correct delivery address and postcode important?

A.  In order to make sure your order has as much chance of being delivered on time and successfully please make sure you enter all the details correctly.

Do I have to provide a contact number for me and recipient?

A.  It is very important that we can contact you and/or the sender if there are problems with delivering such as obtaining access to the premises or if we do not have the flat number.

For any further information you can send email to info@flowerstation.co.uk or call us on 020 7724 7525 .
