Our customers can return their order for an exchange or a refund within these time parameters.  If a customer wants to return an order outside of these parameters, then Strangford Incubators reserve the right to decline. However, we always put our customers first and we will do our best to find you a mutually agreed solution!

• Rest of the World – 30 Days Returns Period (From delivery date)

How does it work?

Please contact us by email info@stangfordincubators.com, by phone +44 7711 738 210 or by our Live Chat facility in order to authorise your return before sending it back to us. This will help us to identify your order and speed up the process! Orders must be sent back to us in the original resaleable condition that they were received by the customer and in the original packaging with all parts accounted for. If an item is returned after it was used or damaged by the customer, Strangford Incubators reserve the right to deduct up to 50% from the refund to recover the lost value of the item.

Once your return has been authorised, we will send a Royal Mail or Parcel Force label to your email address. Please print out this label and ensure your order is resealed in the original packaging with strong parcel tape so it is ready for travel. Stick the label on to your order and leave down to your local Post Office, or we can arrange a collection (a surcharge may apply based on Returns Reason).

Please send all returns to Strangford Incubators, 35 Londonderry Avenue, Comber, Newtownards, County Down, BT23 5ET.

Please note that for Rest of World returns, the customer must cover the cost of the shipping back to us and the cost of delivery for a replacement (if exchanging).

Products such as Disinfectants, Egg Wash Powder & Vitamins can not be returned due to biosecurity.

What if my item is Faulty (Manufacturing Defect)?

If you discover that your item may be faulty or if you can find any defects which may have occurred during the manufacturing process, please let us know immediately!

What if I want to return an item due to Change of Mind?

If you have received your order and would like to return it due to a ‘change of mind’, please let us know and we will guide you through the returns process.
