Shipping Delays in Scotland
By Josephine Marsh on
Glasgow will be hosting the UN Climate Conference (COP26) from 31st October until 12th November and whilst it's running we expect disruption to deliveries in parts of Scotland.
Please note that whilst we'll do our best to deliver to you within the timeframes shown on each item's page, we cannot guarantee delivery on a set day whilst the summit is ongoing.
The disruption will be most pronounced in the city of Glasgow, particularly centred around the Scottish Event Campus (SEC). We also expect surrounding areas, including the M8 motorway and parts of Edinburgh where some of the delegates are staying, to see road closures and disruption.
After consultation with our couriers, the below delays may occur from Wednesday 27th October until Friday 12th November, please add these working days onto the delivery estimates shown on each item's page if you live in the affected (or closely surrounding) areas just to be on the safe side:
Postcodes |
Approximate Working Days' Delay |
G1-5, 11-14, 20-22, 31-33, 40-44, 51, 52, 72-73 |
2 - 5 Days |
All other G postcodes, PA1-19, KA, ML, EH |
1 - 3 Days |
Additionally, we are aware that there may be strikes by public transport workers and other unexpected disruption during this time and will update this page if and when anything changes.
Please find further information via the official COP26 website.
