About our service

What services does Hanover Dairies provide?

Hanover Dairies delivers fresh milk, dairy produce, eggs and juice directly to homes and businesses across the UK. All products are sourced through local independent dairies, farms and suppliers to ensure freshness and quality.

Yes. We deliver across multiple regions throughout the UK, but every customer receives products from local farms and dairies in their region, delivered by your local milkman, supporting independent British suppliers.

We source all milk from local Red Tractor–certified farms in the areas we deliver to. Animal welfare statements from each supplier can be viewed on our website.

Milk is bottled at the individual plants of our approved suppliers. For more details, please refer to each supplier’s website.

All eggs we supply are large free-range eggs..

It is recommended that milk is consumed within 4 days once opened if stored correctly. We are confident in our product. If you’re unsure, use the sniff test – millions of litres of perfectly good milk are wasted each year due to over‑reliance on date labels, this contributes to milk being one of the Top 5 most wasted food products in the UK.

To give your milk the best shelf life, please ensure you keep your milk refrigerated as much as possible. 

We have insulated cooler boxes available, if you would like to order one, you can add these via your online account or by contacting our customer service department.

We are pleased to offer a delicious range of dairy alternatives, these are; Oat, Almond, Soya and Coconut. You can add these to your order via your online account or by contacting our customer service department.

Your deliveries may have been paused due to non‑payment identified through our automated debt process. When an outstanding balance is detected, the system will temporarily place your account on hold until payment is made and we are notified of the payment, we will then resume deliveries.

You can view and manage any outstanding invoices within your online account, or if you’d prefer to speak to someone directly, please contact our Customer Service team via telephone or our online chat function, who will be happy to help resolve the issue and reinstate your deliveries.

Our drivers are often out and about before sunrise, so now and then they might miss your empties – especially if they’re tucked away or they’ve built up. 

To make things easier, please pop your empties out regularly the night before your delivery day and leave them somewhere easy to spot. We’ll make every effort to collect them on your next delivery. If it happens again, just get in touch – we’re always happy to help!

If you’re using a cooler box during the warmer months, please place your empty bottles outside of it. This helps our drivers pop your fresh delivery straight into the cooler and collect your empties quickly and easily. A small step for you — and it really helps our delivery team keep everything running smoothly!
