General Shipping Info

Most parcels arrive on time, but delays may be experienced due to:

• Extreme weather and flooding which may cause damage and closure of rail lines and major roads.
• During peak periods (such as Nov-Dec), all locations Australia wide may experience some delivery delays.
• A longer delivery time may apply for NT, TAS, WA, and some regional/remote locations.

To avoid unexpected delays we recommend you choose the Express Shipping option during checkout.
