Advice

Delivery to a business address is the best option when possible as someone is usually there during business hours to accept the item. If you are using a commercial address, please include the companies name when filling out the shipping information

When you are filling out your shipping details please include as much detail as possible, we require a company name if the item is going to a business address, full address, email and mobile phone. For example;

Sydney Hi-Fi Castle Hill

Bob Bobson

0149 000 000

castlehill@sydneyhifi.com.au

7/19 Victoria Avenue

Castle Hill, NSW 2154

The more information you provide the better it is for us to get your parcel out to you in a timely fashion!

Delivery to Hotels

If you are visiting Australia and would like an item shipped to your hotel, please provide the following information;

  1. Hotel Name
  2. The room you are staying in
  3. The name your room is booked under
  4. All other relevant information, phone, email etc.

A Multitude of staff members could receive your goods and without the information listed above there is a great chance you may not receive your goods during your stay

Authority to leave

Be very careful when authorising a parcel to be left without anyone physically present to receive it.  Only allow this if you are 100% certain that the area is safe and easy for the courier to find

Unit blocks with limited access and letterboxes only are very difficult for couriers to assure delivery. Can you use your work or maybe a friends address which may have better access to receive a parcel?

Freight Services Used

We use Couriers Please, Toll, or Australia Post depending on the type of item we need to ship and where the item is going.

If you wish to use a PO Box, Locked Bag or Parcel Locker as a delivery destination we use Australia Post.

If the item is going to a residential or business address and not extremely large we use Couriers Please

Delivery ETA

“How long until my item is delivered” is a question we get asked frequently!

Generally

Sydney and surrounding suburbs is one to two working days

Brisbane, Melbourne two to three working days

South Australia, Northern Territory, Western Australia and Rural areas nationwide can take five to seven working days.

Please understand that this is a generalisation based our experience over time and once your item is dispatched it is in the hands of the freight companies, my recommendation is to follow the tracking of your item and contact the freight company if you require further information on your delivery.

Unsuccessful Delivery

Depending on the freight company used they have different methods of dealing with an item that they haven’t been able to deliver successfully, in most cases there wasn’t anyone at the delivery address to receive the item.

Australia post will leave a card in your letterbox and you will need to pick your item up at the local post office.

Couriers Please will leave a card to advise you that they will attempt delivery one more time, it is imperative that you contact Couriers Please following the details on your card to organise redelivery, failure to organise and being unavailable for the second delivery will result in your item either being available for pick up at a depot or you will be responsible for redelivery charges.

Toll Couriers will deliver once if you are not available you will be required to pick your item up from a depot or organise the cost of redelivery.

For all other questions regarding freight please call us in store on (02) 9899 9079. We are more than happy to discuss any issues or questions you may have.
