Returns Policy

Our returns policy is 10 working days from despatch of Goods. If you wish to return Goods for credit you must first make a Returns Authorisation Request. All Goods being returned should be posted at a Post Office please ensure that you have either a proof of postage from the post office or the goods are sent as signed for. Our returns address is Highways, Little Green Lane, Caddington, Bedfordshire LU1 4EW; alternatively the goods can be handed in at the school in a sealed package clearly marked with your RA Number. (provided your school participates in the school drop scheme, however, please be aware that we will only make a collection from the school if we are already on site delivering. During the low season we may not attend the school every week.)

WHAT IS AN RA NUMBER?
An RAN (Return Authorisation Number) is a number that controls and regulates the flow of customer returns to give a quicker and more accurate service to our customers. It is essential to obtain one prior to sending back any goods purchased from us.

We regret that items returned to us without a valid RA Number will not be processed and may become lost within the system.
