Delivery Policy NZ:
We use signature required courier bags/tickets to ensure correct delivery to intended recipient. Anyone at the delivery address who receives the goods shall be presumed by Hawes & Freer Ltd to be authorised to receive the goods on your behalf.

If there is no one at the delivery address at time of delivery you will need to make alternate arrangements regarding a suitable time with the carrier. You may be required to pay an additional fee.

Deliveries will occur between 7.00am - 6.00pm Monday to Friday. Exact times cannot be given. Your parcel should arrive within 4 working days once you’ve received the receipt for your order. Rural delivery may take longer. We will always advise if there is an expected delay due to product availability. Delivery charges cover packaging, delivery and insurance.

Delivery Policy International:
Hawes & Freer Ltd will ship to Australia (if you’re outside of NZ and Australia, please contact us directly before ordering). New Zealand GST is not applied to overseas orders. This will be deducted when your payment is processed.

All orders are sent by International Economy Courier with New Zealand Post. The delivery time frame for Australia is 3-5 working days. Any additional taxes or duties that are incurred within the recipient’s country are the responsibility of the buyer/recipient. Payment of these is necessary to release your order from customs on arrival.

Goods are insured up to the value of $2000. You can expect that items will usually arrive at their destination within the time frame specified. But because NZ Post does not directly control all parts of the delivery chain, they cannot guarantee that your item will always reach its destination within the delivery target. Delivery to areas outside major cities, or where your item is dutiable or held in Customs, may take longer.
