Welcome to the wonderful world of Paleo Ridge deliveries! We’re thrilled to bring our premium raw dog food right to your doorstep, ensuring your furry friend enjoys the healthiest and tastiest meals. Whether you’re a seasoned Paleo Ridge customer or a curious newbie, here’s everything you need to know about our delivery service.

Swift and Reliable with DPD

We partner with DPD, one of the UK’s most trusted couriers, to ensure your orders arrive swiftly and safely. Known for their reliable service and precise tracking, DPD helps us maintain our promise of excellence from our factory to your home.

DPD deliver a record number of parcels with a whopping 98% of parcels being delivered with no issues.

We use eco-friendly Woolcool Insulation, trusted to keep food frozen for 48 hours as the DPD vans are not refrigerated. We also offer a next-day delivery service to ensure food arrives safe and frozen.. We also offer a next-day delivery service to ensure food arrives safe and frozen.

If you receive a DPD notification offering to 'rearrange delivery' please DO NOT do this. This is a standard automated message from DPD but does not have a good track record with frozen deliveries as they have no refrigerated or frozen storage to keep your order overnight. If you change the delivery date, we have no control over how the order is stored so if any issues arise, we will not be liable for the order.

DPD May Deliver Within 48-Hours

Although we offer a 24-hour delivery service, ourselves and DPD are contracted to deliver within 48-hours. What does this mean? Well, sometimes delays can happen which can't be helped causing DPD to deliver your parcel a day later. Our packaging should keep food frozen for this time so please ensure you accept the order if it arrives one day late.

Please do not reject the order without checking it first, we don't want the order to be wasted unnecessarily. We recommend to check the contents on receipt of your order and follow the steps below in relation to raising issues with deliveries.
