You agree that all of your transactions with or through the site may be conducted electronically from start to finish unless for some reason this is not possible. If we need to proceed non-electronically, those transactions will still be governed by these Terms.

Delivery, shipping and handling:

When we send a delivery to you as per your instructions, you may incur an extra delivery cost on top of the amount already paid at the checkout. This applies for regional locations, the need for a forklift or in some cases, delivery to a residential address.

Due to the large, bulky and heavy nature of some of our letterboxes, mainly freestanding letterboxes and multibanks, delivery interstate can be expensive, especially for residential addresses without a forklift. We offer a standard flat rate that you will see calculated at the checkout, however please keep in mind we may need to contact you for further shipping costs depending on the situation. 

We will notify you as soon as possible if any extra charges are applicable to your order. Please be aware that prices for freight are not controlled by us nor do we aim to make a profit from freight charges.

You agree to pay any delivery and handling charges shown on the site when your order is placed. We reserve the right to increase, decrease or eliminate charges from time to time and without prior notice so you agree to check all charges before signing up to purchase any product.

Letterbox manufacturing can take several days or weeks to complete. We can not make any promises as to delivery times and lead times. You will receive tracking information once your order has left our premises. 

Unless otherwise stated, we will deliver the goods to the address supplied at the time of placing the order. Changing delivery address after your order has been dispatched will incur an additional fee of $25.

We currently accept payment via the Shopify Payment gateway. Only valid cards can be used and any refunds will need to be credited to the same credit card used for the purchase.
