SHIPPING AND DELIVERY POLICY
We want each order to reach you as quickly as possible
So that you know what to expect, we provide some general guidelines here, though the timing of delivery of your order may be slightly different to that outlined below.
DELIVERY PARTNER
We currently use Australia Post to deliver your parcel safely and quickly. If safe drop os chosen we cannot be held liable for lost consignments by Australia Post.
IF NO ONE IS HOME
If no one is home at the time, usually the driver will contact you to confirm the alternative delivery address or will leave a note for you so the parcel can be pickup by you from the nearest Post Office. Please leave your best contact phone number so the driver can confirm delivery time if applicable.
DELIVERY TIMEFRAMES
Delivery times usually take between 1-8 working days for Australian deliveries and sometimes longer for remote areas.
These delivery times relate only to business days, Monday to Friday, and exclude weekends and Australian public holidays. As a general rule, Adelaide Metro deliveries are usually 1 working day (overnight service), Canberra, Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne around 2-3 working days, Perth and Darwin around 4-5 working days and rural deliveries can be around 8 working days. Whilst we make every effort to deliver by the estimated timeframe, all dates specified are estimates only. We have aligned ourselves with transport partners who we believe will always do their best to deliver products by the estimated delivery date. We can’t be held liable for loss or damage resulting from late delivery but we will do our best to help you in these circumstances.
DELIVERY CONFIRMATION
We usually notify you of the status of your order within 24hrs (next business day) to let you know how your order is progressing, or when it has been shipped. In cases where we have run out of a particular item, we will contact you by email or phone as soon as possible to discuss your order if we cannot dispatch the item to you within 7 days. Your order will be sent via Australia Post and we’ll provide an estimated arrival date so you know approximately when to expect it. There are rare occasions where external factors completely outside of the control of our delivery partners can delay a parcel, despite their best endeavours, so we do ask for your patience and cooperation in these circumstances.
