Please remember we are not just taking our boxes off the shelf; each & every order is handmade individually for each customer. We endeavour to despatch as soon as possible, or by your requested date, but it is good to allow time for your box to arrive in your selected design, as at certain times of year demand can be very high and the workshop becomes very busy. We are currently experiencing unprecedented demand due to the large number of weddings in 2022 & 2023, and orders are taking a longer than the usual 7-10 days. We will send you an email advising of the current time for delivery. However if you need something straight away, please choose from our “Ready to Go” section, or let us know of your required by date.

If your order is urgent, it is helpful to select “Any Available Design” plus you can upgrade your order for £3.50 by selecting “fast-track”. When you pay for fast track service, your order will be put forward in the queue to make in the workshop, (or if your box is already in stock, it will go out straight away.) When the box is ready it will go on an overnight courier, so this will speed up the process of your order. Please feel free to phone us to discuss any urgent requirements.

We use a courier such as DPD Local to deliver your parcel, and this requires a signature, so please ensure an appropriate delivery address is given where a signature can be obtained.

You will receive an email/text (mobile numbers only) from us advising you when your box is being despatched, and one from the courier with further delivery advice with an approximate delivery time within 1 hour. In the event of the courier attempting delivery when you have not been in, please respond immediately to the courier card. If no communication is received from the recipient, the parcel will be returned to The Empty Box Company, and this will incur extra redelivery charges. If you foresee a problem please add clear delivery instructions e.g. “If out, leave at no.4”

Calligraphy on your box will add approx. 1 extra week to the delivery time of your box, even if fast-tracked.

We do try to meet your required dates if we can, but The Empty Box Company cannot be held responsible for any consequential loss or late arrival of any order.

I had three Bespoke Hat Boxes made for me all those years ago (1993) in my left over French wall paper I had in my London bathroom. It was a very grand bathroom. I've moved since, always with these boxes. To the Cotswolds, to Saint Remy de Provence, and now to Naples, Florida. They are going to be someone's long after I am gone. Much adored, thank you! My boxes are beautiful, I'm so glad I found you all those years ago. I just discovered too your splendid YouTube channel. Thank you for opening new doors!
Just wanted to say thank you so much for my daughter's wedding travel box. Absolutely exquisite! The quality and heart pattern of the box is perfect for any bride to accompany her wedding dress abroad. Such a special time for any lady! The calligraphy as well is impeccable! Thank you again to you and your team for helping us make such an important personal occasion stress free.
I have recently received my order from you, and would just like to thank you all so much for my wedding dress box. It was a surprise to see such a wonderful designed box, which had a lot of storage space. I have searched high and low for a large box and have only been successful with yourself.
Very rarely in this busy world we lead do I feel strongly enough to put “pen to paper” however having taken delivery of my wedding dress travel box this morning I feel compelled to write to you! I must admit that initially, I hesitated about placing an order for what seemed effectively like just an empty box. Well, I stand corrected! The box is absolutely stunning and of amazing quality – I simply had to express my thanks for supplying such a beautiful product. Rest assured it will be displayed with pride on top of my wardrobe.
Wow! What a beautiful box for my wedding dress. It was so sad to pack my dress away, but your box was just perfect. My Mum thought I was ordering just an ordinary plain box! No way! Thank you so much.
