How much does shipping cost?Updated 3 months ago

Delivery Options


We've made delivery easy at The Paint Shed - no faff, just the paint you need, when you need it.


Standard Delivery is ideal if you're planning ahead or not in a rush. Orders are sent on a next-working-day service with DPD and will arrive within 1–3 working days. Many orders arrive as early as the next working day, however dispatch times can be slightly longer during busy periods.


Priority Next Working Day Delivery* is your best bet when time's tight. Place your order before 3pm on a weekday and it'll be with you the very next working day - no delays, no drama. And if the courier lets us down, we'll refund your priority shipping fee. Simple as that.

If you’re planning ahead or not in a rush, our Standard Delivery is ideal - it will be dispatched in 1-2 working days, reliable, straightforward, and gets your paint to you without any fuss.

Alternatively, if you need your order fast our Priority Next Working Day Delivery* is your top pick. Place your order before 3 pm on weekdays, and we’ll make sure it arrives the very next working day – no delays, no drama. And if something goes wrong on the courier’s end and your Priority Delivery doesn’t arrive on time, we’ll refund your priority shipping fee - simple as that.

Simply pick the delivery option that suits you, and we’ll handle the rest. *Restrictions apply. 

All orders are scheduled for a Next-Working-Day Service (Monday to Friday), with the main difference being our handling to despatch times. 

Additional information:

  • Priority orders placed before 3 pm on a weekday will be dispatched the same day for delivery on the next working day.*

  • Priority orders placed after 3 pm on a weekday will be dispatched the following working day on an express next working day service.*

  • Priority orders placed after 3 pm on Friday or over the weekend will be dispatched on Monday for delivery on Tuesday.*


*Please note, no deliveries will be scheduled for weekends or National Bank Holidays, so please allow additional time in these circumstances. Additional charges and timescales apply for deliveries to the Isle of Wight, Isles of Scilly, and mainland areas that our couriers consider to be remote (some AB, HS, IV, KA, KW, PA, PH, ZE postcodes).


We cannot offer a 100% guaranteed next working/weekday delivery service. Our couriers aim to deliver over 98% of parcels on the next working day (weekday delivery only and excluding National Bank Holidays), however, this is not guaranteed, and we cannot accept liability for any work started or costs incurred because of delays/errors. We advise customers to order in plenty of time to allow for unforeseen delays as well as not to book any contractors until orders have been received and checked.
