Shipping

We use a combination of Australia Post and Courier (usually TNT) depending on your location and what you have ordered. The larger items, like an electric smoker will be sent via courier and smaller items via parcel or satchel through Australia Post. If you select to ship your item to a PO Box we will use Australia Post.

The quoted shipping period stated on the order completion page is indicative only and represents an estimation of shipping days AFTER the item has been packaged and delivered to the post office or courier, allow for an expected handling time of 1-3 days. Please ensure you allow plenty of time for your parcel to arrive if you need it by a certain day or date.

If you need your item in a hurry, please call or send an email so we can do our best to get it to you in time.

All shipping prices are calculated at the time of checkout. The prices will vary depending on factors such as, weight of parcel and delivery location, ect.

We estimate shipping prices to be from, $9.90 for small orders weighing less than 500g. $13.20 for orders with total weight over 500g but under 3kg,  and $18.70 for orders weighing more than 3kg. These rates exclude smokers, bulk order items and also deliveries to remote locations.

Please make sure that you let us know if an item will not be safe to leave at your premises, either by the Courier or Australia Post, as we will not take any responsibility for an item that goes missing after delivery to your address.

If you are not going to be home to accept delivery or it is not safe to leave you should advise us of this or have the item sent to your work or PO Box. If you have any doubts or special shipping instructions, please let us know.

Of course If an item goes missing in transit and does not show as being delivered by either our Courier or Australia Post, we will replace that order and ask that if the first shipment eventually arrives, that you let us know and make arrangements with us for its return.

If you require the parcel to be signed for or you instruct it not to be left and there is a second delivery required, you will be responsible for any extra cost involved when you have requested the parcel to NOT be left.
