Home delivery boost for islanders

Residents on Scottish islands have been given a boost after Argos increased its delivery service to the area, meaning 98 per cent of Scottish islands’ residents can now get large items delivered to their homes

The trial will bring Argos deliveries to 41,000 more homes and another 56 islands, including Shetland, Orkney, the Inner Hebrides and the Western Isles. Delivery and collection prices will match those available in the rest of the UK and customers can book a specific delivery date for the first time.
