Q. How does container supply work?

It's very simple.

1: Browse the products and find what you like, by clicking the email link below a product, it will then open an enquiry request, you then submit this to us.

2: From the information you have supplied we will send you a quotation that includes delivery cost direct to you from our supplier, the slate exporter, this can be for delivery direct to site or delivery to our warehouse to ship to you, whichever is easier for you.

3: If you agree with the quotation, we then send you a sample so that you can see for yourself the quality of the product; alternatively you can visit our warehouse and view the product personally if we have it in stock.

4: If you are happy with the sample of the slate tile or product sample you have requested, we then place your order with the factory.

5: We then ask for a 10% deposit to secure the order.

6: We then site back and wait a while as your goods are being produced, usually 4 - 5 weeks.

7: Once the products are ready they are shipped to the port, loaded onto a container ship and then sail to the UK or Europe, we fax copies of the Bills of Lading and packing list to you so you can see that your product has been shipped.

8: We then require that the goods are paid for in full before they arrive at the destination port. Once the goods arrive, we arrange delivery to site or to our agreed delivery address.

That's it!!!


Q. Am I restricted to getting just one product in the container?

Certainly not! We can load a mixture of any products you specify, but you must take into account that the maximum loading weight is 26,000kgs in the UK, the loading weight also depends on which country your products are being delivered to but we can advise you of this.


Q. I need a smaller amount than a container load, what can you do for me?

We do have products available in our warehouse for purchase. We do not stock all products, but we do stock the popular selling products. If we do not have what you require in stock then we can order it for you direct from the supplier.

Please contact us and send us your request, we will then provide you with a price for the products and estimated leadtime for delivery.
