Mitigating ADR Charges - How does this affect you

CHEMICALS – What is the ADR charge?

Certain toxic and flammable chemicals and goods require special packing, shipping, transportation, and delivery to prevent risk to the health and well-being of people directly involved with them.

The surcharge ensures that the goods are transportation and legislation compliant. Some of these chemicals can be transported in limited quantities with no ADR charge, others, have a surcharge regardless of quantity.

New ADR surcharge as of 1st October 2022, the ADR charge will be £15.00 per order.

We continue to support our customers with some of the lowest prices in the market and the most generous loyalty scheme offering a 2% annual rebate.

We will continue to offer free delivery with all orders over £75 or no minimum spend if you are a Select Saver (ADR surcharges still apply).
