You have a duty of care to protect the goods until they are returned to us or collected from you and in particular, they must be stored in a clean dry environment, protected from the effects of the weather. Nothing contained within this Returns Policy affects your statutory rights.

The consumer must give written notice to our business address at Grainger Tubolt Limited, Units A&B Meyrick Owen Way, Pembroke Dock SA72 6WS no later than 14 days after the date of receipt of the goods, by post, in person, by fax or email.

Where written notice is given in full in accordance with the statutory regulations (including the required timescale), a full credit will be given within 30 days of the cancellation date for the cancelled goods, which will include the costs of delivering the goods to you. The goods will normally be collected from you within 21 days of your cancellation notice and you have a duty of care to protect the goods whilst they are in your possession and to make them available for collection. You must pay the direct cost of returning the goods.If the value of the goods is diminished by any amount as a result of the handling of the goods by you beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods, we may recover that amount from you up to the full price of the goods, by deducting it from any refund due to you or by requiring you to pay that amount direct to us.
