We would normally arrange delivery for our clients - once the order is picked and packed, we assess a number of our 15+ courier options to find the most economical option for you. If you wish to use a transport company we do not have an account with, we are happy to let you know when the order is ready for collection, along with weight and dimensions so you can book the order for collection with your preferred carrier.

Deliveries elsewhere are usually delivered within 2-5 business days, with the exception of WA (5-10 business days).

  • What are your shipping/delivery costs?

    Shipping costs are on-charged to you 'at cost'. Factors that influence the shipping cost charged by the carrier include weight and dimensions, location, and distance from pickup to delivery locations. When ordering online, a shipping cost will be provided in the cart or checkout based on these factors. Otherwise, we are happy to provide a shipping cost should you contact us by phone or email.

Please also advise these details if you place your order over the phone or by email.

  • Can I specify which courier or delivery company will bring my order?

    Yes, you can, providing it is a carrier we already have a relationship with. Please be aware your chosen carrier may not be as economical as other options we may have available – delivery costs are on-charged at cost to you.
