Should I order or wait until the snow clears?

I have had no post since last Friday so not sure whether if it's worth ordering now for a monitor. Dont want it getting delayed in the post and possibly damaged.

I wouldn't worry. If they cannot get out because of the snow, then they will not get out. Reject any parcel with visible damage.

This. Check for damp around the corners that might indicate it's been left lying in snow or a puddle too!

It makes no difference IMO. They'll get it as far as they can, so at least when the snow clears it gets to you as soon as possible.

Your monitor will either sit in a DPD warehouse waiting to be sent on to you, or OcUK's warehouse waiting for dispatched - I don't see any difference apart from that if it's in OcUK's it'll take longer to get to you, and it could go out of stock in the meantime.
