Shipping Policy
Effective Date: 21 July 2026
At The Sage Apothecary, we aim to prepare and dispatch your order as quickly and carefully as possible. Please read our Shipping Policy below for information on processing times, delivery and shipping.
Order Processing
Orders are typically processed within 1–3 working days after payment has been received.
As many of our herbal products are freshly prepared to order, processing times may occasionally be longer. If there is a significant delay, we will contact you using the details provided with your order.
Orders placed on weekends or public holidays will be processed on the next working day.
Delivery
We currently deliver within the United Kingdom.
Delivery times will depend on the shipping service selected at checkout and your delivery location.
Please note that delivery timeframes are estimates and cannot be guaranteed once your parcel has been dispatched.
Shipping Costs
Shipping charges are calculated at checkout based on the size, weight and destination of your order.
Any applicable delivery charges will be clearly displayed before you complete your purchase.
Order Confirmation
Once your order has been placed, you will receive an email confirming your purchase.
If tracking information is available for your order, this will be provided once your parcel has been dispatched.
Incorrect Delivery Information
Please ensure that your delivery address is accurate before completing your order.
The Sage Apothecary cannot be held responsible for delays or additional costs resulting from incorrect or incomplete delivery information supplied by the customer.
Delayed Deliveries
While we aim to dispatch all orders promptly, delays can occasionally occur due to circumstances beyond our control, including courier delays, adverse weather or busy seasonal periods.
We appreciate your patience should this happen.
