Helium Gas
Greetings House can supply our customers with Helium Gas via collection from a network of depots around the UK.
We will arrange collection of your chosen bottle from a depot to suit you. If collection is not an option BOC may be able to deliver to your business address.
Orders for collection from the depots must be placed before 3.30pm the previous day and you must let us know the day of collection. (Collections are Monday - Friday only and depot opening times may vary.)
The various bottles and prices are listed below along with the appropriate daily rental charges, which will be invoiced monthly.
You are required to pay rental for the bottle for the entire time you have it, once your bottle is empty we advise you to return it asap to stop the rental charges, you are charged rent daily for each bottle you have.
Please Contact us for a code to return the bottle back to the depot you collected it from to ensure our records are up to date.
Your business must be registered with a separate Gas Account before you are able to rent a bottle.
Disposable bottles are also available to purchase online for UK mainland delivery. Disposable bottles incur no rental charges.
