Shipping policy
Last updated: 15 September 2026
Standard UK delivery is free on every Lunveia order. This page explains where we deliver, how long it takes, how tracking works, the rules for amending or cancelling an order, and what we do when a parcel is late, lost or damaged. It applies together with our Returns & Refunds Policy — please read both before you order.
1. Where we deliver and what it costs
We deliver to addresses within the United Kingdom only; international delivery isn't available at this time. Standard delivery is free on every order, with no minimum spend — the price at checkout is the total price, and nothing further is collected on delivery.
2. Processing and delivery times
Processing — the time between your order being confirmed and the parcel leaving the warehouse — takes 1–3 working days (Monday to Friday, excluding bank holidays; orders placed at the weekend start processing on Monday). Delivery with the courier takes an estimated 3–5 working days, so allow 4–8 working days in total from the day you order. During sales and the peak season from November to December, processing can take up to 2 additional working days.
These are estimates based on courier performance, not guaranteed dates: bank holidays, severe weather, courier disruption and customs inspections can add time. A delay within or shortly beyond the estimated window isn't a reason to cancel an order — section 6 explains what we do when a parcel is late or lost.
3. Cancelling or amending an order
Every order is passed to our fulfilment warehouse automatically and enters processing within minutes. For that reason an order can only be cancelled or amended within 5 minutes of being placed — after that we're unable to stop, change or retrieve it. Please check your items, sizes, colours and delivery address carefully before you confirm.
To cancel within the 5-minute window, email support@lunveia.com straight away with your order number and "CANCEL" in the subject line. The time your email reaches us is what counts, and every cancellation is confirmed by us in writing. Requests that reach us after 5 minutes can't be processed as cancellations — including if you've changed your mind, found the item elsewhere or are worried about the delivery time — and we'll send you our return instructions instead.
The processing time in section 2 is the time the warehouse needs to prepare your parcel; it isn't a period during which the order is on hold.
If you no longer want your order, you can return it after delivery under our Returns & Refunds Policy. Returns are international shipments to our returns centre in the United States and are at your own cost. Refusing or not collecting the parcel doesn't cancel the order (see section 5).
4. Tracking and split parcels
Once your order is dispatched you'll receive an email with your tracking number. Tracking can take 2–5 working days to show its first scan, and updates can be less frequent while the parcel travels between courier hubs — a quiet tracking page in the first days doesn't mean anything has gone wrong. If your tracking hasn't updated for 10 working days, contact us and we'll check with the courier.
Items are dispatched from the warehouse that holds them, so an order with several items may arrive in separate parcels on different days, each with its own tracking number and email, at no extra charge. Part of your order arriving later than the rest isn't a missing item — please wait until all tracking numbers show delivery before contacting us about a missing product.
5. Delivery address, failed and refused deliveries
Please check your address carefully at checkout, including any flat number and postcode, and add a phone number for the courier. Address changes are only possible within the 5-minute window in section 3; after that, couriers don't redirect consumer parcels.
Parcels that can't be delivered because the address was incorrect or incomplete, or that aren't collected within the courier's holding period, are returned to the courier's origin facility. This isn't a cancellation or a return. Once the parcel has reached the warehouse again we can re-ship it at cost, or refund the order minus the courier's charges for the failed delivery and return.
Refusing a parcel at the door doesn't cancel your order, and isn't treated as a return: refused parcels go to the courier's origin facility rather than to our returns centre and often can't be recovered, so a refund can only be considered once a parcel has actually been received back. If you no longer want your order, please accept the delivery and follow our Returns & Refunds Policy.
6. Late or lost parcels
If tracking shows no movement for 10 working days, or your parcel is more than 7 working days past the estimated delivery window, contact us with your order number. We'll open an investigation with the courier, which can take up to 10 working days. If the courier confirms the parcel is lost, we'll send you a replacement free of charge; a refund is only issued if a replacement is no longer available.
If tracking shows "delivered" but you don't have the parcel, check with neighbours, in a porch or communal entrance and any usual safe place, and review the courier's proof of delivery — couriers sometimes scan a parcel shortly before the final handover. Let us know within 7 days of the delivery scan so we can raise a claim with the courier. We look into every case; where the courier provides proof of delivery to your address (GPS scan, photo or signature), the outcome of the courier claim determines whether a replacement can be issued. If you added Shipping Protection at checkout, section 9 applies.
7. Damaged on arrival
Please inspect your order on delivery. If the outer packaging or the item is damaged, keep all packaging and email us within 3 working days of delivery with your order number and photographs of the outer box, the shipping label and the damaged item. We need the photos within this period because the courier's own claim window is just as short; we're unable to accept claims without photos or after 3 working days. Confirmed transit damage is resolved by sending you a replacement free of charge, not by a refund (see our Returns & Refunds Policy, section 8).
8. VAT and duties
All prices include VAT. You won't be asked to pay import duties or fees on delivery.
9. Shipping Protection
Shipping Protection is an optional service you can add to your order at checkout. It covers your parcel against loss or damage during transit, as described at checkout: in those cases we send you a replacement free of charge.
The Shipping Protection fee is non-refundable once your order has been dispatched — including if you return the order, or part of it, later. It is only refunded when an order is cancelled within the 5-minute window in section 3.
10. Customer service
Customer service hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm (local time). Closed on Saturdays, Sundays and bank holidays. We reply within one working day.
