Shop order pickup and delivery.
Your order is ready. I can pick it up and bring it to you.
Send the order reference, the shop’s collection instructions and the package size. If the order contains several boxes, share the size and weight of each. Your purchase should be ready for release at the collection time we agree.
Ask about this pickupBefore the pickup.
Please include:
- Confirmation that the shop permits third-party collection
- The order reference and collection instructions
- The packaged size and weight of the complete order
It needs to fit inside my SUV and be safe for me to carry on my own. A few photos, the measurements and a note about any stairs help me plan the pickup.
Use the collection size, not just the product size.
A boxed product can be considerably larger than the item itself. Ask the shop for the outside package measurements, and check whether the order is split across multiple cartons. Send the receiving instructions too, especially if a workplace has limited delivery hours.
A few things to know.
Can you collect an order I haven’t paid for?
Orders should be prepaid and ready for release. I’m providing the collection and delivery rather than purchasing the goods.
Can you deliver to my workplace?
Yes, if the route and item are suitable. Include the receiving hours and the person or desk accepting the order.
What if the shop delays the order?
Let me know before the agreed collection time so we can review the plan. Please confirm readiness before booking.

Back to your pickup detailsHow much will it cost?
It depends on the drive, what you’re picking up, and how much lifting is involved. I’ll give you a price before you decide. Let me know about stairs or a tight pickup window.
Can you pick up today?
Same-day pickups depend on my availability and the seller’s pickup window. A little notice helps me fit you in. Your pickup is confirmed once you and I have agreed on a time and price.
Do I pay the seller directly?
Yes. Pay the seller for the item and let them know Porchbound will pick it up. You’ll pay me separately for the delivery, at the agreed price.
Can you pick up my item?
Send a photo or listing and rough measurements, and I’ll check whether I can carry it safely and fit it in the car. I work on my own, so I can’t take anything that needs two people to lift. Mention any stairs at either end, too.
