Stock Availability
We make it easy for you to know the availability of our products on our website:
• In Stock (typically delivered within 4-7 days).
• In Stock at Distributor (typically delivered within 2 weeks)
• Call for Availability: The item is usually available with our supplier, but it's best to check with us for the exact lead time.
Delivery Timelines
We strive to keep our website updated, but high demand can occasionally deplete our stock. If we can't ship your order within the usual 4-5 working days, we'll contact you with a new delivery date.
Shipping
In the UK, standard shipping takes 2-4 working days. Our goal is to make sure your products reach you as quickly and affordably as possible.
• Shipping charges will be added to your order, and you'll see the total cost before you finalize your purchase.
• Although we must charge for shipping, we do our best to keep it minimal. Some deliveries might require a signature. If you won't be home, please provide an alternative delivery address or include notes when placing your order.
Safe Place Deliveries
We deliver between Monday and Friday and can bring your order to your home or workplace, whichever is more convenient for you. Most orders need a signature upon delivery. If we're unable to obtain a signature or reach the specified address, the delivery will return to ML Masts & Rigging.
Please note that we might not always be able to leave your order in a safe place or with a neighbour. If you choose to have your parcel left in a safe place, it’s your responsibility from that point on.
