Ordered around 1.40pm and received by 11am next day. Informed order was being dispatched, DPD sent text for delivery time and they were smack on. 5kg of meal worms doesn’t sound exciting but service... See more

Fantastic company giving a fantastic service ...

I've used Croston for more than a year now and I agree with everything already written about them. One doesn't usually get, or even expect efficiency nowadays, but Croston have it and give it in spades which is quite uplifting in this day and age. The delivery service is excellent and I recommend Croston and DPD every chance I get !! Thank you for such a pleasant and reliable service. xx

Very professional service

Extremely satisfied by the excellent service provided by this company. The website is easy to navigate and the range of products on offer is very good. The order process is also easy and, once an order is placed, the communication regarding delivery is outstanding. It's great that you are given a time slot for the delivery. This enables you to get on with things rather than sit in all day wondering when the delivery will turn up. The discount points are an additional bonus too...
The choice of courier (DPD) is sound. We are very fortunate to have an extremely helpful young man deliver to us who will drop the delivery into our hall. No mean feet when you've just had 50kgs of suet arrive!
I thoroughly recommend this company.

Fantastic Service

This is my first time ordering from Croston Corn Mill and I have been delighted with my experience - from the ease of online ordering, to receiving an e-mail and text of order acknowledgement and then a further text with a 1 hour time slot for delivery the day after ordering. The item arrived well packaged. All this and free delivery. Will certainly use Croston again.

Utterly perfect service !

This is one of the best companies I have ever dealt with - both in my domestic life & also as a business-owner; I regularly place orders, they are always shipped within a few hours & they always deliver on time - next-day service. Their prices are good too - I know this as I regularly shop-around to ensure I am getting the best deal for dried-mealworms & suet products for my wild birds (who eat an enormous amount !) I always prefer to deal with 'smaller' or family-run companies, as they usually give the best service. I do not usually provide review - no time - but Croston Corn Mill is a quite exceptional company - a big thank you to them !!

Regular customer's comments

I have used Croston Corn Mill a number of times over the last couple of years, and I have now set-up an account to simplify ordering. The website is easy to use, service and products are good, and their concept of standard package size/weight for delivery a good idea. They use DPD who give you a one hour delivery timeslot. On the only occasion I had to phone them with a query the staff were extremely helpful and quickly supplied the answer. P.S. the birds like their products!

Better than average

We have been buying from Croxton nearly a year. The product qualities are first class, but the speed and efficiency of their service is exemplary - a glowing example to lesser traders as to how it should be done.

Excellent Service

Have been using Croston Corn Mill for a number of years now. The Sunflower hearts ,Mealworms and Peanuts are very good quality and overall service is excellent. One problem the birds and hedgehogs love the food so it doesn't last long.

Sunflower hearts

Don't go anywhere else now. Birds love the food I love the service. It's half the price of my local garden centre and a lot fresher. The birds in my garden have more than doubled since I have been using Croston Mill and it all gets eaten. I order the seed one day and it arrives the next what more could I ask for. Thank you Croston Mill for a hassle free service.

Good value products and excellent service

I have been buying bird food from Croston (mostly sunflower hearts and dried mealworms) for a few years now. The birds like the food and I like the prices and the service.
Today I had a delivery that was missing one item, but less than 30 minutes after reporting it (by e-mail) I had a reply saying I would get the item tomorrow - I can't expect anything better than that!

Sunflower hearts

Their product is excellent - attracts all sorts of birds (we had only ever seen two goldfinches together before - now see eight together regularly) - the price is very good and the delivery is first class.

Sunflower Hearts

This was my 2nd order. Top quality product and next day delivery. In the last 6 months, my garden has been visited by a huge variety of birds, previously never seen when using 'cheap' (but more expensive) alternatives. My local pet store charges £1 a lb, which is twice the Croston price. There is no mess or waste. Ground feeders hoover up anything dropped by the messy goldfinches!! I will never use any other supplier for my bird seed. Croston are, without doubt, the best around.
