ASOS Delivery and Charges

As for delivery on ASOS, there are two types of delivery. The first shipping method is paid and the price varies depending on how much product you’ve bought. This shipping method usually takes no longer than 4 days to get to your address (the one provided in your “My account” page) after you’ve purchased the products.

The shipping is handled by a UK company by the name PDP who then hands it over to a Nigerian Shipping company when it gets to Nigeria. The Nigerian Shipping company – Aramex – is now tasked with getting the item to you.

If you opted for the free shipping or bought items worth $20 or more which qualifies for free delivery then that takes about 10 to 14days to get to the Post Office nearest to your address. This free shipping is also handled by PDP and then Aramex when it gets to Nigeria. However, you’ll have to go to your nearest Post office when your package arrives to pick up your items.

Also, Users of ASOS have reportedly been getting a customs duty fine on packages that cost more than $250. To avoid this, it is advised not to order anything that costs about $250 at once. You can split them into two and order them separately at separate times.
