“diy.com doesn’t ship to my country.”
Have you seen an item on diy.com only to find out B&Q doesn’t ship to your home country? We understand that frustration, and we're here to fix it. Thanks to MyUS, you no longer have to ask, "Does B&Q ship to my country?"
Even though B&Q doesn’t ship directly to all countries, MyUS has helped millions of online shoppers buy from B&Q by providing MyUS members with a UK shipping address (and a US sale tax-free address). Ship your B&Q purchases to MyUS, or items from thousands of other stores, and we reship to you anywhere in the world!* A MyUS ship forwarding address is your access to shop UK and US stores.
“diy.com does ship to my country, but it’s really expensive.”
- B&Q may ship to your country, but at a marked up price. In addition to MyUS being an accessibility option for when B&Q doesn’t ship an item to your country, MyUS is also a cost savings option for ordering an item from B&Q, then reshipping to your home country often at a lower total cost than the shipping price B&Q would charge.
- If a store has an online presence in your home country, MyUS members also find their UK address allows them to shop products and sales offered on the store’s UK site which may be unavailable on the store’s website setup for your home country.
- Accessibility to shop B&Q internationally while saving money is at your fingertips with a UK shipping and forwarding address.

Our members often find MyUS international ship rates are lower than the international ship rates offered through stores because MyUS has negotiated competitive ship rates with top global carriers.
