Same Day Dispatch
Order before 1pm on a business day and we'll dispatch your order that same day. Tip: We have a countdown to each dispatch time at the top of our website.
Tracking
All our domestic delivery services include tracking so you know exactly where your parcel is and when it's expected to arrive.Delivery Times
Most of our domestic orders arrive in 1-3 business days. Delivery times can vary with parcel size, selected delivery service, delivery location, and if your order contains dangerous goods or not.
Delivery Cost
To keep our delivery prices as low as possible, we work hard to get volume discounts and of course, we do not mark up on postage to provide you with the lowest possible price we can offer.
Safe Drop
Australia Post: Once lodged, you'll receive an email with a "Use Safe Drop for this delivery" button, click it to allow Safe Drop for your order and avoid a potential trip to the Post Office.
Toll: Toll assumes all parcels are approved to be left safe at a 'safe' location at your premises. Do not select Toll if you require a signature on delivery.
Dangerous Goods
We do not charge extra to send Dangerous goods. Although, it may extend the delivery time as dangerous goods can only be transported via road (not air). This mainly affects paints and spare LiPo batteries.
International
We also deliver to New Zealand!
We only send with Australia Post for international customers. Please note, we cannot send dangerous goods including LiPos and paint overseas due to aviation safety regulations.
Unfortunately, we do not deliver outside of Australia and New Zealand at this stage.
Insurance
Once the courier has your parcel order, it is out of our control. From this point, the purchaser accepts the risk of any loss or damage to the goods while they are in transit.
How do I track my order?
You'll receive an email containing your a link to track your parcel within 1 business day of purchase.
Receiving a delivery
To avoid potential damaged or missing item disputes, the buyer needs to check the condition of the goods on arrival before signing for the parcel.
