The Direct Answer
Two to five working days from quote acceptance for standard UK pallet orders. Expedited slots are workable when booked at quote stage.
The Slightly Longer Explanation
Standard UK lead times sit at two to five working days. The variance comes from pallet routing, destination postcode, and current supplier batch availability.
Expedited delivery is bookable at the quote stage — supplier batch and route capacity drive whether a specific date is workable.
First orders into a new postcode sometimes take an extra working day for routing setup; recurring orders settle into predictable cycles.
Buyer Checklist
Before you act on the answer above, run through this:
- Submit the qualification wizard with target delivery date
- Confirm the quote shows the agreed lead time, not a generic range
- Plan a one-cycle safety stock buffer
- If expedited, book at quote stage rather than after the proforma is signed
