    Hi Mark.
    I've posted here because others may want to know. If I order some stuff from the Parts Store, would they be able to write a request on the Parcel to:- "Leave in the back garden if no one is at home." I live in the country and most things happen like that here.

    Obviously I'm working during the day, and delivery is not so accurate to be able to take a day off work at short notice.
    Normally I have my parcels delivered to my work place, but I think they will get a bit upset if a great big parcel arrives on their doorstep.

    Cheers
    Gray

    fyi - it may not have to be short notice. When you pay the import duty you can choose a delivery date.

    Oh Wow! Didn't realise this. Trouble is I have to give many weeks notice and have to fit in with other people's needs.

    Cheers

    What do you reckon Mark. Is that a can-do thing?

    Hi Gray,

    Apologies for jumping in here but your delivery will be a 'signed for' so someone must be available.
    Parcel Force handle the customs clearance in the UK and as Bit53b has said you can specify a delivery date (including Saturdays I believe) alternately you could arrange collection from their local depot.
