How quickly will I receive my order?
We try to keep a good stock of the products available on the online shop, and aim to deliver goods within 3-5 working days in the UK, if you're shipping them to a destination within Europe that could take between 7 to 14 days or 12 to 24 days for the rest of the world.
Goods are usually delivered by Royal Mail 48 Tracking and may take a little longer around Christmas and other holiday periods where delivery may take longer. We will let you know if there will be a delay, offering either to keep the goods on backorder or refund you. Please understand that sometimes there are delays - regrettably no delivery service is infallible, and estimated delivery dates are therefore not guaranteed.

If you have an urgent order please contact us by email at shop@balticmill.com or telephone +44 (0)191 440 4947 (Monday - Friday 10:00-18:00). Any orders sent next day delivery will be shipped by courier and the cost will be calculated by the weight of item(s) and its destination. Please note, we are currently unable to offer next day delivery
How are postage charges calculated?
We have tried to make shipping simple. There are 2 basic pricing structures one for prints and the other for none print products, these are then split into UK, Europe and rest of the World, reflecting the different costs of postage. Postage is FREE within the UK when you spend over £60.
As prints are fragile we have to pack them separately, so you will be charge for each item you order, however as we can package several none print items together you only be charged 1 postage charge for all none print items no matter now many items you order.
