Delivery:
When will my order arrive?
Our standard delivery is next day, but there are some exceptions and you must order before the cut off point for your area. Depending on where you are in the UK and whether or not you have ordered bespoke or non-stocked cleaning and catering products, delivery times can vary.

You will receive an order acknowledgement when you order online at Pattersons.co.uk which will details when your order will arrive. Make sure you check this out first to find out the answer.
Do I qualify for free delivery?
Any inventory and cleaning supplies orders over £75 (ex. vat) to be delivered on a weekday will not incur a delivery charge, and if you are picking up from one of our collection centres it will be free no matter how much you spend. You can find more information on delivery charges here.
Why have I only received part of my order?
If some of the cleaning products or catering supplies you ordered has not been delivered with the rest of your order, this may be because the item in question was not in stock at the time the order was placed, and therefore will be delivered later than the rest of the order. Check your order acknowledgement as this details stock availability. If you have any queries regarding this, get in touch with the Pattersons Cleaning & Catering Supplies team on 0117 934 1270. Or email us on [email protected]
How can I check stock availability?
When placing your cleaning or catering order online, you may see a van or clock symbol next to a specific product which indicates whether the product is in stock or not. If the product has a van symbol next to it, it means that your catering & cleaning goods are in stock. If the product has a clock symbol next to it, this means that the item of bar, catering or cleaning is not in stock. By hovering over the icon you will see the lead time. Alternatively you can contact the Pattersons Cleaning & Catering Supplies team who can check stock availability for you and let you know the delivery date. Email the team on [email protected]
