Frequently Asked Questions

Are your premises open to visitors?

Yes. You're more than welcome. We're open for visitors every weekday 9am-4pm. DON'T GO TO CANTLEY! We are in Lingwood, 3 miles west of Acle off the A47 Norwich - Yarmouth road. We are BEHIND Lingwood Railway Station, which is on Station Road. Drive into the station and go right to the back of the station, past the Station House,, through the entrance with the large white gate, 150 metres down the drive, and we are the only building down the end. You can't miss us!

How do I pay?

Telephoned orders can be paid for at the time of ordering by any of the major credit/debit cards. Callers to our premises in Lingwood can pay by credit/debit card or cash. Orders placed on our online shop can be securely paid for with your credit/debit card or Paypal account or, if you prefer not to do that, by calling our sales office on 01603 714691 with your credit card details. You can also choose to pay for online orders using BACS. Regular customers are welcome to apply for account facilities.

Do you charge for local delivery?

We don't like to, but the cost of deliveries gives us no choice but to make a delivery charge in some circumstances.
Orders to Norwich (NR1-NR3 postcodes) with a value under £15 + VAT incur a delivery charge of £2.50 + VAT.
Orders to Norwich (NR4-NR7 postcodes) with a value under £15 + VAT incur a delivery charge of £3.49 + VAT.
Orders in the Norfolk/N. Suffolk area incur a delivery contribution charge of £4.49 + VAT for the 1st 30kg box, £7.49 + VAT for a 2 box delivery, £10.49 + VAT for a 3 box delivery, and £13.49 for a 4 box delivery.

Do you supply printed carrier bags or other printed packaging?
No, we do not currently supply any printed packaging items.

OK - you are in Lingwood, so why are you called Bagman of Cantley?

Well, we became so well known as Bagman of Cantley in the 1970s (see the next question to read all about our infamy), when we were operating from premises in Cantley, that when we moved to larger premises in Lingwood, in 1978, we thought it would be madness to change such a well known name. We aren't so well known now, especially in the UK as a whole (we just served Norfolk back then), but we still can't bring ourselves to change the name.

Who wrote those daft adverts that appeared in the local paper years ago?
