THE BOX.
THE BOX
DOES NOT
MOVE.
Boxcat Logistics collects your parcel, carries it across the district and presents it at your door on the day we promised. Everything after presenting it is between you and the cat.

Every parcel we carry reaches the address. Our guarantee covers the journey, the vehicle, the stairs and the knock. It has never been asked to cover a cat, and it does not.

THE DELIVERY GUARANTEE
Four promises, in force from the depot gate to the doormat. Each one is printed in full, with the conditions underneath it.
-
01
ON TIME OR THE SHIPPING IS ON US
The van leaves at 06:40 and the box is at your door inside the window we quoted. Timing is measured at the door, which is where the driver is standing, and where he remains.
Conditions
The window closes when the parcel arrives, not when it is released. A parcel presented on time and withheld by its occupant is recorded as delivered on time.
-
02
FULL PROTECTION IN TRANSIT
Corners, lids, tape and contents are covered against crushing, soaking and drops from the top shelf of the vehicle. Our claims desk settles in three working days.
Conditions
Occupancy is not damage. A box that has been sat in is intact, warm and in the same condition it left the depot, plus the cat.
-
03
SIGNATURE ON EVERY HANDOVER
Nothing leaves the driver's hands without a signature on the sheet. The pen is supplied by us and the sheet is supplied by us.
Conditions
The signature must come from the party in possession of the parcel. At this address that party has no thumbs and no interest in the form.
-
04
FREE RETURNS WITHIN 14 DAYS
Changed your mind about the contents. Book a collection and the same driver comes back up the same four flights to take the box away.
Conditions
The box is returned in the state we find it. Our drivers are not trained to empty a box, and our insurer has asked us to say so in writing.
Boxcat Logistics Group. Terms apply at the door. The guarantee is a guarantee about the box, about the van and about the driver's arrival. It has always been written that way.
