Delivery policy - please read carefully
The Doxdirect online printing and binding service is available 24/7, enabling you to upload and order printed documents at any time. Our production facility however, only operates on weekdays, meaning that orders cannot be processed over the weekend or public holidays. When placing your order and selecting processing and delivery options, we ask you to please bear this in mind and allow sufficient time for your order to be processed.
At Doxdirect we differentiate between 'turnaround time' and 'delivery options'. Turnaround time means that you can select how quickly we actually process your order. Our standard turnaround time is 2 days, excluding weekends and public holidays, but we also offer a 'same day and 'one day' service for orders which are more urgent. Any orders for hardback and paperback books will need an additional 2 days processing time before despatch.
Turnaround time options:
Orders will be processed the same day as the order is placed (working days only), and despatched the same day, as long as the order is received by 11am. Exceptions to this are orders for hardback and paperback books which need an additional 2 days processing time before despatch.
Orders will be processed the following working day from the day of receipt of your order (working days only) from the day of receipt of your order (if you order on Friday then your document will be shipped on Monday at the latest). Exceptions to this are orders for hardback and paperback books which need an additional 2 days processing time before despatch.
Orders will be processed and despatched 2 working days (working days only) from the day of receipt of your order (if you order on Monday then your document will be shipped on Wednesday; if you order on Friday your order will be shipped on Tuesday).
