Hamilton Baskets · from the UK
Gift baskets for Hamilton, ordered from the United Kingdom
Distance doesn't come into it: your order from the UK is made up to order and delivered by courier across Hamilton and Southern Ontario. Paid in CAD; the recipient sees no bill, no customs, no import fee.
Buying from the UK, delivering in Ontario
Yes — a purchaser in the UK can order for a recipient anywhere the store delivers in Hamilton and Southern Ontario. Checkout keeps two addresses apart, and the order goes wrong only when they're mixed:
- Who pays — your own name as printed on the card, plus your street address, town and postcode, in the billing section; put your postcode there too.
- Who receives — their full name, Canadian street address, city, ON, Canadian postal code (L8P 4R5 style) and their telephone number in the delivery section, because that's who the courier calls.
- Who it's from — the greeting message says, in your words.
Prices, currency and cards
PricesSet in Canadian dollars (CAD). The currency menu at the top of the store can show them in GBP — an estimate at the day's rate, for comparison only.
What you payA CAD amount — the gift, Canadian sales tax and delivery (free over $100), all displayed before payment. Your card issuer turns it into pounds sterling at the issuer's rate, possibly plus a fee; the store has no part in that conversion.
Payment methodsThe store shows Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club and JCB (2026-09-21). the UK-issued cards are fine; use the address the card is registered to.
No border costsBecause the basket is assembled and delivered within Canada there is no duty, customs or import charge, and the recipient owes nothing.
Delivery dates for their address
Enter the recipient's Canadian postal code — the answer comes from the same delivery service the checkout uses: whether the address is covered, and the courier's days.
Hamilton and Southern Ontario only, by courier in one to three business days (weekdays). Orders by 2 p.m. Eastern ship that day. Delivery is free over $100; below that, checkout shows the charge.
Delivery timing, in your time
Everything is timed on Eastern Time, which is what the recipient in Ontario lives on. An order in by 2 p.m. Eastern, Monday to Friday, goes to the courier that day and arrives within one to three business days; weekends and holidays don't count. Here is that cut-off for September 21, 2026:
| Time zone | Courier cut-off (2:00 p.m. ET, weekdays) |

Today on this device, the 2 p.m. Eastern cut-off is — (your device's time zone: —).

Where's my order, who to ask, and alcohol
Following the order
The Order Tracker asks for the email address you ordered with and the postal code on the order. A very recent order may not appear for a few minutes; if it still doesn't, contact support with the order number from your confirmation email.
Getting help
Call support on (905) 667-3660 or use the support widget on the store (see the contact page). Have the order number ready; calls are in Eastern Time — see the timing table above for the gap.
Sending wine or spirits
A bottle — wine, champagne, beer, spirits — can be delivered where the recipient is at least 19, Ontario's legal drinking age. It is received only by someone 19+ with photo ID, while gifts without alcohol need no signature. Kosher wines and alcohol-free gourmet options are available too.
Ordering from the UK: what people ask
Do you accept British cards?
Yes: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club and JCB, billed to your British address. The amount is in Canadian dollars, converted by your card issuer.
Is there anything for the recipient to pay?
No. Made and delivered within Canada means no customs or import charges; delivery is free over $100, and below that the buyer pays it at checkout.
What's the ordering deadline?
2 p.m. Eastern, Monday to Friday, for the gift to ship that day — the table above gives it in the UK time. Delivery follows in one to three business days.
Can I send wine or spirits?
Yes, to a recipient who is 19 or over. The courier hands it only to someone 19+ with photo ID.
Nobody in — what then?
The courier can leave most gifts somewhere safe or at a building's front desk. Alcohol needs a person 19 or over with photo ID.
