Local Deliveries
Our delivery areas include Boston, Grantham, King’s Lynn, Lincoln, Louth, Newark, Oakham, Peterborough and Wisbech,
Using our own fleet of vehicles and our own staff, we’re able to deliver locally, free of charge. However once your delivery has been booked in and our vehicle has started its journey you will incur a £10.00 per cubic metre charge or a £20.00 per tonne of coal if you decide to then cancel or change your delivery time/date.
Below is a map of our delivery areas. For orders outside of the indicated area, please use our sister websites www.nationalcoal.co.uk or www.nationalfirewood.co.uk
We will deliver free to any location inside the marked orange delivery border area (*subject to a minimum order). If you require a delivery to a location on the marked boundary (or just outside it), please telephone us to confirm if we can deliver to you.
How we deliver your fuel
Our coal is delivered in prepacked 25kg bags. If you have a bunker or coal shed we can empty the bags into those for you. We understand that everybody’s needs are different and that is why we not only will deliver your coal to your bunker or shed but will also offload it and put into your store for you.
Our wood deliveries are LOOSE tipped with our specially built tipping trailers, or tipping body Land Rovers which are able to negotiate the tightest of driveways and tracks. We will always endeavour to offload your wood as close to your point of storage as is humanly possible to minimise your workload.
Please bear in mind that we are only able to deliver firewood as close to your store as it is possible or safe to do so with our delivery vehicles. Please see the terms and conditions page for full details.
Our deliveries are made by competent staff, on time and to your specification. We will always call you before making your delivery to ensure that you are ready for us (and have time to put the kettle on!)
Sometimes our customers choose to store their fuel in awkward or otherwise inaccessible areas. Our delivery fleet include 4-wheel drive vehicles and modern trailers deigned for demanding terrain. in addition to our Land Rovers and trailers, we have 3 x 7.5 Tonne lorries. We have never been unable to deliver even in the harshest of conditions. When our competitors are snowed in and wouldn’t leave their depots in 2010 we were happily delivering logs and coal with Land Rovers, and even took to the roads with extra tractors and trailers to fulfil our orders.
You can depend on us to keep you warm – if we say we will deliver we will, no matter the weather!
