Freight Cost Changes

Due to significant rises in diesel prices over the last year and tax increases imposed in the last budget, VWR transport costs have increased substantially and we are no longer in a position to absorb these additional costs. Unfortunately, we have no option but to pass a proportion of these costs directly onto the market.

From 7th June 2011, the following freight charges now apply.

For Standard Orders for delivery within Dublin , a charge of €23.50 per ORDER applies.
For Standard Orders for delivery outside of Dublin, a charge of €28.50 per ORDER applies.

For large deliveries of Equipment/Instrumentation, prices for delivery/installation etc., are available upon request.

Delivery charges will now also be applied to all orders placed on-line on ie.vwr.com

This charge is per order, not per delivery.
We would encourage our customers to consolidate their orders where possible to avoid multiple charges.
In some cases, when goods are required urgently or extra deliveries per order are requested, the extra freight costs will be charged accordingly.
Additional charges may also be applied for deliveries of pallets or large equipment.
