Understanding Shipping Rates for Cheese Wedding Cakes

At FDL Cheeses, we understand that planning a wedding can be both exciting and stressful. To help you better understand the shipping rates for our cheese wedding cakes, we have outlined how these rates could have been calculated, including the factors that could of determine shipping costs, such as destination, weight, and size of the order. We also provide a clear breakdown of the shipping rates and any additional charges that may apply.

How Shipping Rates are Calculated

Shipping costs for our cheese wedding cakes could have been determined by three main factors: destination, weight, and size of the order. However, to keep things simple, we only have one shipping price which is £20 for next day AM delivery.

Competitor companies might have different shipping rates that include:

1. Destination: The shipping cost will vary depending on the location to which the cheese wedding cake is being shipped. We offer shipping services within the UK, and the rates may differ for various regions.

2. Weight: The weight of the cheese wedding cake directly impacts the shipping cost. Heavier cakes will incur higher shipping fees.

3. Size of the Order: The overall size and dimensions of the order, including any additional items or packaging materials, can also affect the shipping cost. Larger orders may require special handling and may result in higher shipping fees.

Additional Charges

In some instances, additional charges may apply to your order. These may include:

1. Remote Area Surcharge: Certain remote areas within the UK may require additional shipping fees. These charges will be calculated based on the specific location and will be communicated to the customer before the order is processed.

2. Import Duties and Taxes: For international shipments, customers may be responsible for import duties and taxes imposed by their country. These charges are not included in the shipping cost and must be paid by the customer upon receipt of the order.
