Information and Guidelines

for Ordering, Deliveries and Collections

Ordering

  • We only accept orders in writing via email to info(a)toa.co.uk.  Please use this email address rather than individual staff emails as this is monitored by more than one person.
  • Our cut off time each day for orders is 2pm. Orders received after this time are not guaranteed to be processed until the following day. We do not guarantee to process an order on the day we receive it.
  • The majority of orders are dispatched from our 3rd party warehouse and not from our office in Leatherhead. If the item, such as custom-built products, repairs and spare parts are located at our office they still need to be dispatched from our warehouse.  Stock movement between TOA and our warehouse is normally once a day each morning.
  • Stock held in the UK normally has a 2-3 day turnaround.
  • Stock held in our hub in the Netherlands has a 2-3 week turnaround.
  • We do not offer a postage service all orders are dispatched by courier.
  • Orders outside the mainland UK have a longer delivery.
  • Orders outside of the UK have an extended time due to the customs process we must adhere to.
  • Customization:  If the product you require is built-to-order, customized such as having speakers sprayed to a specific RAL colour or are a non-standard stock or 3rd party items ordered especially for you these cannot be cancelled or returned.
