Are you having trouble completing your purchase?
Don't worry, we're here to help. Sometimes products available with different delivery methods can cause problems during the ordering process. Let's go through how you can identify and solve these issues.
Understanding the Problem
When you add products to your cart that require different delivery methods, our system may not be able to process them as a single order. This is because we cannot deliver products from the same order from different warehouses. Here's a deeper look at why this happens:
- Logistics Optimization: Our delivery system is designed to group similar delivery methods to optimize routes and reduce delivery costs.
- Inventory Management: Products delivered from different warehouses or stores cannot be ordered in the same order.
- Different Carriers: The carrier can vary depending on the delivery method.
Typical Situations
Different Delivery Methods: You have chosen both home delivery and store pickup. This is one of the most common issues as they cannot be combined into a single order.
Delivery Areas: Some of the products in your cart may not be deliverable to your address. If a product is limited in availability from a specific store, delivery may not be possible. The cart will inform you if delivery options are not available to your area right after entering the postal code.
Products Requiring Special Handling: Certain products (such as large appliances, fragile items, or hazardous materials) may require special delivery methods, which may not be compatible with other products in your cart.
Detailed Troubleshooting Steps
-
Review Your Cart Carefully:
- Go to your cart and review all products carefully.
- Check the chosen delivery method for each product.
- Look for error messages in the cart that may indicate delivery issues.
-
Group Similar Delivery Methods:
- Try to group together products with the same delivery method.
- For instance, select store pickup for all products if possible, or home delivery for all products.
-
Check Delivery Possibilities by Postal Code:
- Ensure all products can be delivered to your address.
- Some products may have delivery restrictions to certain areas.
- Try entering different postal codes to see if the issue is location-specific.
-
Consider Placing Multiple Orders:
- If the products you want cannot all be delivered with a single delivery method, consider placing separate orders for products based on delivery method.
- Group products into different orders by delivery method: one order for home delivery, another for store pickup, etc.
-
Verify Delivery Dates:
- Ensure all products have compatible delivery dates.
- Note that some products may have longer delivery times, affecting your ability to combine them with other products.
-
Remove Problematic Products:
- If you've identified the products causing the issue, try removing them and completing the order for the remaining products.
- You can always place a separate order for the removed products later.
- Consider alternatives for removed products, like choosing a different model or brand.
Tip:
Use Click & Collect Service
If possible, consider using the Click & Collect service for all products. This often resolves delivery issues since you pick up all products from the same location. It is also generally faster and avoids delivery costs!
Special Considerations
- Click & Collect Products: You can only choose products for your order that are immediately available in the store's inventory or can be delivered there.
- Pre-order and Backorder Products: These products often cannot be combined with in-stock products due to different handling times. Consider placing separate orders for these products.

Yes, splitting the order into separate purchases based on delivery method is often the best solution when you encounter this issue. This allows you to choose a suitable delivery option for each product group, ensuring smooth handling and delivery.

Splitting the order can lead to additional delivery costs since each order is processed separately. However, you can potentially minimize costs by selecting store pickup for some products. Our customer service can help you find the most cost-effective solution.
Unfortunately, Click & Collect products cannot be combined with other orders.
