Terms & Conditions

Who we are?

In this General Terms and Conditions, references to "we" and "us" are H Clark & Son (Salt Suppliers) Ltd at the address provided below.

These Terms and Conditions apply to all transactions on this site. Please read them carefully. They do not affect your statutory rights.

We may change these Terms and Conditions at any time. Any changes will take effect on the date they are posted on to the site (see date above). You will be asked to read and accept the Terms and Conditions each time you place an order to ensure that you are familiar with the most current ones.

Our Contract

You will have an opportunity to check and correct any input errors in your order up until you click the Submit Order button.

After you submit an order we will give you an Order Reference Number and details of the products you have ordered. We will send the same details to you in an email acknowledging receipt of your order (Order Acknowledgement). We will then send a further email when we start to process your order (Order Processing). Please note that these emails are both acknowledgements, not acceptance of your order.

Subject to the paragraph headed “IMPORTANT” underneath the “Prices and Payment” section below, acceptance of your order and the creation of a legally binding contract between us will only occur when we send you an email confirming your order (Order Confirmation). This will contain details of how your products will be delivered to you. Alternatively, we may decline all or part of your order for any reason, in which case our Order Confirmation email will tell you so.

We will tell you if your payment details cannot be authorised for any reason and may invite you to pay by another method.

Prices and Payment

All prices and charges on this site are in UK pounds. They include any VAT payable and delivery to your address subject to the delivery address being within the specified delivery regions: Hampshire (excluding the Isle of Wight), Dorset, Berkshire, East Sussex, Oxfordshire, Surrey (excluding Congestion Zone), West Sussex and Wiltshire. We reserve the right to reject any order that involves delivery outside these regions.

The total cost of your order will be the price of the products you order including VAT and delivery charges. All these will be set out clearly in your Shopping Basket before you submit your order.

Prices, offers and products are subject to availability and may change before, but not after, we accept your order. If something becomes unavailable we may offer you an alternative or refund your money.

IMPORTANT: We try very hard to ensure that all information on this site is accurate. However, just occasionally, an error can occur. If we discover an error in the price or description of a product you have ordered, we may cancel your order at any time up to the point we send you the product(s) (even if you have received your order confirmation email). We will contact you where we become aware of an error and ask whether you wish to continue with your order at the correct price or cancel it. If we do cancel your order, you will receive a full refund of any charges paid in advance.

We accept payment via PayPal and by most major credit and debit cards. Payment is deducted when we process your order.

Restrictions - Age Requirements and Limits on Orders

If you order a product on this site you warrant that you are legally entitled to place and pay for the order by the specified payment method.

Delivery Charges:
We offer free delivery within the above-mentioned counties subject only to the minimum order quantities represented by the order options presented on this website and providing we can deliver to you on the date / time specified in our order confirmation or delivery advice emails (there will normally be a charge if we have to come out to you again because we couldn't deliver to you when advised).

IMPORTANT: We do everything we can to meet the delivery times specified in this section. However, these cannot be guaranteed as occasionally delivery times may be affected by factors beyond our control e.g. weather and road conditions.
