Shipping policy

Order Processing & Shipping

The order management process on the Lancaster website is divided into two distinct stages:

  • Logistical processing (Pick & Pack) of orders in our warehouse;
  • Delivery (Shipping) by the carrier selected at the time of the order.

1. Order Processing

We process orders from Monday to Friday. All orders placed before 12:00 PM (noon) will be prepared and shipped the same day. After this time, they will be prepared and shipped the next business day.

Delivery times then depend on the selected shipping method. Lancaster also informs its customers that these timeframes exclude weekends and public holidays.

This timeframe may be extended by an additional 48 to 72 hours during special operations (sales, private sales, Christmas period).
