Freight charges are calculated depending on your delivery address and the total freight weight. Total freight weight is the greater value of actual weight or the cubic weight.
“Actual Weight” is the weight in kilograms (kg) of the items.
“Cubic Weight” is calculated in kilograms (kg) from dimensions of the packaged items.
Please Note: Standard freight charges to NOT include lifting off (unloading) from transport delivery vehicle where the total weight of goods exceeds 30kg, If you are unable to provide appropriate lifting please select delivery to your nearest depot for collection or select tailgate delivery.
Due to the bulkiness of a lot of our products, freight charges are sometimes difficult to accurately calculate, especially to remote or rural locations. In this case when the calculation is unable to provide you with an indicative price, please call us to discuss your options or select a nearby location where you can collect the goods from.
Once you go through the check out you will be asked an option for delivery or pickup. Click on the pickup option.
PLEASE NOTE: Before collecting your goods, we kindly ask you to confirm that your order is ready for collection or wait for us to contact you to confirm. This will save you time and prevent unnecessary disappointment
No, the driver can’t call you prior to delivery. This is primarily due to road safety reasons. If you unsure you will be home to receive the goods then nominate delivery to your work address or a nearby depot for collection. If you have selected a business address for delivery then it is assumed the business will be open Monday- Friday 9am-5pm to receive the goods.
