Delivery, Moving and Handling
Mainland UK Deliveries
Active Birth Pools delivered within the mainland UK are wrapped in protective packaging
and placed in double walled boxes with corrugated sides.
The pools are delivered by our dedicated carrier on a week commencing basis.
If you require delivery on a specific date or at a specific time please contact us for a
quote.
Box Size and Weight
Active Birth Pool: 1880 x 1690 x 790mm 100 kg
Venus Birth Pool: 1960 x 1390 x 790mm 90 kg
Princess Birth Pool: 1640 x 1140 x 790mm 80 kg
The carrier will deliver your birth pool to the receipt and distribution point.
You’ll be responsible for moving it to the room where it will be installed.
The pool should be moved from the delivery point in its cardboard box by turning it gently
on its side onto a movers dolly or two.
This will enable it to be easily moved along corridors and through doorways. Once the
pool is in the room where it will be installed carefully open the cardboard box and remove
the protective packaging.
Outside Mainland UK and International Deliveries
Active Birth Pools that are delivered outside the mainland UK are wrapped in protective
packaging and placed in timber framed crates with plywood sides that conform to
ISPM15 and are stamped accordingly.
Crate Size and Weight
Active Birth Pool: 1910 x 1720 x 890mm 225 kg
Venus Birth Pool: 1950 x 1420 x 890mm 185 kg
Princess Birth Pool: 1670 x 1170 x 890mm 145 kg
The birth pool should be unpacked from the timber crate but left in its protective
packaging for moving from the delivery point to the room where it will be installed.
The pool should be gently turned on its side onto a padded movers dolly or two to
enable it to be easily moved along corridors and through doorways. It’s best to handle
the pool by the rim as this is the strongest point.
