We use Couriers Please and Australia Post via the Shippit booking platform as our shipping method.
Free delivery is offered for all orders over $38 per transaction.
We charge flat rate shipping of $5.98 for all orders that are under $38.
The actual shipping cost is $12.95 for most regions around Australia, so we kindly ask you meet us halfway.
Why do we have a flat rate shipping fee? The answer is 2 fold:
1. We love being able to offer our customers with well priced & affordable everyday products so to keep the cost of the products affordable, we need to set spend minimums in order to achieve this.
2. To lower emissions caused by the shipping process. When a customer orders a single product, it takes a lot of energy and emissions to get just 1 sponge to its destination especially interstate. Yes, we have customers that order 1 sponge. Hence why we set spend minimums to encourage customers to purchase more than just one product to reduce and spread the emissions and energy it takes to ship.
It is the customer's obligation to enter the correct delivery address details at time of ordering.
It is the responsibility of the customer to inform us if an order hasn't arrived. The courier does not inform us. Once we learn an order has not arrived by the approximate due date, we will lodge enquiries with the courier to ensure delivery occurs as soon as possible.
Please note that sometimes parcels get separated at the courier depot which means if you have multiple parcels, they may arrive at different times.
Please note that if an item has been lost or damaged in transit, we will despatch a replacement item. Please send photo of your damaged item to info@barklybasics.com.
A late delivery does not constitute a failure on our end and does not entitle you to a refund or cancellation of an order. Please email us to info@barklybasics.com if there are any issues to discuss.
We will not accept liability for any loss or damage arising from items lost, stolen or damaged after delivery has taken place.
