Using our postal service is as easy as 1-2-3:
- Complete the order form, below, before posting your sharpening to us. Include a list of the items you are sending, together with anything else you would like us to know or check for you.
- We will let you know once your parcel arrives and will get to work as soon as possible.
- Once the work is complete, we'll send you an invoice for payment by your chosen method (either card or Paypal) and pop it back in the post to you.
There are a number of things to bear in mind when posting items to us (this is the serious bit!):
- Your parcel should be clearly addressed to: Sharpening Solutions, 505 Ashingdon Road, Rochford, Essex SS4 3HE and have a return address marked clearly on the back.
- Your items must be securely wrapped and stiffly supported with any sharp edges sufficiently padded to avoid damage to your items or to the people handling your parcel. I recommend using a box for hair scissors.
- Click here to see the current postage options and costs from the Post Office. You will need to know the dimensions and weight of your parcel beforehand.
- We do not accept responsibility for loss or damage of your items while under the care of the postal service. For this reason, we advise making sure you choose an appropriate level of insurance for your parcel.
- Always ask your Post Master for a ‘Proof of Postage’ slip when sending your parcel and keep this somewhere safe. You may need to show your Proof of Postage to the Post Office should your parcel go missing.
