Shipping & Returns
Shipping & Delivery Rates
For any order over $25, our standard delivery cost is just $1 per order for less than 3kg to anywhere in Australia whether it's one or ten items that you purchase. Yep, you read that right - just $1 per order.
For local Brisbane shoppers our standard delivery cost is just $1 per order for up to 20kg.
For other parts of Australia, the shipping for orders 3kg or larger will be estimated based on the weight of your order and the postcode of where it is to be delivered. A Shipping Estimate calculator is available from your shopping cart so you can check your shipping costs before checking out.
For extra heavy orders (over 40kg) you will need to contact us for a specific shipping quote.
Weight calculations are based on actual or cubic weights - whichever is greater. This is the same calculation method used by Australia Post and Fastway Couriers - our shipping providers.
You can ship to multiple addresses - but please note that this will be treated as a separate order for each delivery address - and shipping costs will be calculated separately for each order/address.
For International Orders, we will calculate the shipping charges to your destination and advise you of the delivery options available to you and their costs via email.
Shipping & Delivery Methods
Pets Unleashed ships items using either Australia Post eParcel or Fastway courier. You can select which option you would prefer when checking your shipping costs using the Shipping Estimate calculator available from from your shopping cart.
Couriers cannot ship to PO Boxes however so you will need to provide a residential or business street address if you select delivery via courier.
Parcels are delivered to the shipping address you provide when completing the order process. All parcels (eParcel and courier delivered items) must be signed for upon delivery so where possible please ensure someone will be available to sign for the goods at your nominated delivery address.
If there is no one home at the time of delivery, the parcel will usually be returned to the local Post outlet or Fastway Courier depot and a card left notifying the addressee of its location. Wherever possible, please ensure that there will be someone present to collect your delivery.
If it is unlikely that anyone will be home when delivery is attempted, you may consider one of the following alternatives:
-
Include special delivery instructions on the parcel (i.e. if unattended, please leave parcel at door, in carport, etc.)
-
Choose an address at which you know the parcel will be able to be delivered (i.e. work, care of family member, care of neighbour, etc.)
Please be aware that once delivery is made (including by your instructions) that ownership & responsibility for the item(s) transfers to you. Pets Unleashed does not subsidise delivery costs to resend uncollected parcels that have been returned to sender. Delivery charges to resend parcels will be charged at the full Australia Post or Fastway Courier rates.
