Shipping Policy

Last updated July 1, 2025

At The Sauce Forge, we’re committed to getting your order to you quickly, securely. Below you'll find everything you need to know about how we ship our products.

Collection Only

We offer a free Collection Only option for friends, family, colleagues, and local customers in the Crawley and Redhill area.

If you choose Collection Only at checkout, you’ll need to arrange your collection by emailing us at [email protected] or messaging us on Instagram.

Note: Payment is not captured until a collection time and location have been agreed. If collection hasn’t been arranged within 7 days, we reserve the right to cancel your order.

Shipping Methods and Fees

We offer two UK shipping options:

  • Standard Delivery: 3–4 working days
  • Fast Delivery: 1–2 working days

Orders are dispatched within 1–2 working days of purchase. Shipping fees are automatically calculated at checkout based on:

  • Total parcel weight (including packaging)
  • Delivery speed
  • Applicable insurance for higher-value orders

Insurance

All Evri parcels include £20 cover as standard.

For higher-value orders, we offer optional enhanced parcel insurance, calculated at 5% of the total order value exceeding £20. This allows you to insure parcels up to £999, providing peace of mind in the event of loss or damage.

Example:
An order worth £40 can be insured for an additional £1 (5% of the £20 excess).

If selected, the cost of insurance is built into your shipping fee — no further action is required. This helps us resolve any delivery issues swiftly and fairly, especially for larger or wholesale orders.

Shipping Provider & Tracking

We ship all orders via Evri. Once your parcel has been dispatched, you'll receive a confirmation email that includes tracking information, allowing you to monitor your delivery in real time.

We use an integrated tracking system that links your Evri tracking code to your order. You’ll be notified automatically by email — there’s no need to request tracking manually.

If you experience issues accessing your tracking or your parcel is delayed, feel free to reach out and we’ll assist you as soon as possible.

Packaging

We take sustainability seriously. Whenever possible, we reuse and recycle packaging materials to reduce waste — without compromising the safety of your order. Your items will be securely packed to protect them during transit.

Delivery Delays

While we work hard to ensure timely deliveries, external factors like severe weather or courier disruptions may occasionally cause delays. If your order is affected, we’ll notify you and provide an updated delivery estimate.

Shipping Restrictions

We currently ship to addresses within the United Kingdom only. We do not offer international shipping at this time.

Free Shipping

We do not currently offer free shipping. All delivery fees are calculated fairly and transparently at checkout based on the method and weight of your order.
