Every order is double checked to ascertain the correct goods are being sent and also that the freight charges are being kept to the absolute minimum.

We endeavour to pack orders as environmentally friendly as possible, using recycled cardboard boxes, newspapers and packaging materials sent or given to us by others in an attempt to reduce the impact on our world. If you are unable to re-use the bio-fill that may be in your order then simply put it in a bucket of water and it will dissolve.

We would like to assure you of our best attention at all times irrespective of the size of your order, all are treated equally.

If your parcel is over $AU 100 value you may wish to purchase extra insurance - email us. Delivery can be arranged to many international destinations except for those countries (eg Switzerland) who require a phytosanitary certificate. 

Many countries now impose import taxes on purchases.  Please check with your consulate as to what extra fees you are likely to encounter.  Postage charges calculated at checkout do not cover these.

DELIVERY:

We use Australia Post services for deliveries Australia wide as they provide a completely traceable and secure service. Orders placed before 9am (AEST) each working day will be shipped the same day with delivery according to the postage option chosen. The delivery prices quoted are the current charges from Australia Post.

We are not responsible for delays that may occur within the postal system particularly those resulting from force majeure. Force majeure refers to unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, such as natural disasters, acts of God, or any other events that prevent us from fulfilling out obligations.

Express Post delivery is usually overnight for destinations within Australia Post's National Network.
Regular Post delivery is usually 2 to 10 days.

The best way to track and manage your deliveries is with the Australia Post mobile app.

We will do our best to fill orders promptly, but if due to any unforeseen circumstances with supply, there are delays, we will contact you. For delivery of urgent orders please let us know as we may be able to help.
Delays can be expected for delivery to remote areas of Australia but then if you live there you will already be aware of this.
Delivery can be arranged to most international destinations. If your country is not listed please contact us.

PICK UP :  Is available in the Jimboomba/Mundoolun/Tamborine area and must be collected within 31 days of placing the order. No refunds for orders not collected. If you would like to take up this option then please contact us if the pick up option is not triggered by your shipping postcode.

If you’re not home when Australia Post attempts delivery they may not leave you a card indicating the option for another delivery time or direct you to your local Post Office where you may pick up the parcel.  If you have chosen SAFE DROP then you relinquish any rights to compensation via transit insurance should the parcel go missing. We do not encourage "authority to leave" instructions and prefer for items not to be left in a safe place for security purposes. Within Australia, Australia Post offer two excellent services - Parcel Collect & Parcel Locker - BOTH ARE FREE!

Postage options available for your selection include transit insurance and tracking however you will need to select  Signature Required postage option if your parcel cannot safely be left at the premises. Transit insurance cover ceases once a parcel is deemed delivered.

Please note if you include delivery instructions to leave your order because no-one is home to accept delivery, we regrettably cannot accept claims for loss or damage which may arise.

Australia Post offers an excellent service called MYPOST DELIVERIES which allows you to take control of when and where your precious online orders are delivered.  This is well worth investigating given the rise in popularity of online shopping and the likelihood in some neighbourhoods for items to disappear.

DAMAGED OR MISSING ORDER:  All our parcels are insured for loss or damage in transit. Once an order has been delivered then liability rests entirely with you. If this is of concern then please choose the postage option with Signature Required.   

WHERE IS MY ORDER?  This is one question we strive not to hear because we keep you in the loop every step of the way.  First thing to do is to insert the tracking number we have emailed you into the Australia Post Tracking Facility.  If the facility returns a response of DELIVERED and yet you don't have the order in your hot little hands then the next thing you should do to check with other occupants of your home/work in case they have taken delivery.  Check your front porch or near your mailbox.  After that telephone Australia Post on 13POST and register the fact.  Email us so that we're aware of the issue.  Australia Post will then investigate the matter.

PLEASE NOTE:  Provided that all the items are in stock, orders received and paid for by 9am week days will be packed and despatched the same day.   In order to minimise postage we supply all herbs, spices and seasonings in resealable plastic bags or recyclable plastic jars. We will do our best to fill orders promptly, but if due to any unforeseen circumstances with suppliers, there are delays, we will contact you. For delivery of urgent orders please let us know as we may be able to help.

As a guide, the weight of any items packed in glass doubles the packaging weight... eg a jar or bottle containing 250gm of product weighs approx 500gm.  We then need to allow for extra packaging to minimise the likelihood of breakage during transit.

The minimum parcel size for AUSTRALIA POST is 500gm
