COVID-19
In the year 2020 we saw freight volumes grow by 300%, we expect that until Australia has a Vaccine, freight volumes will only increase throughout 2021.
This means during traditional peak periods and whilst parts of Australia are in Lockdown, you may experience delays in receiving your order that is outside of our control.
For urgent orders Express Post is still the quickest, however if your state or territory is in lockdown and not receiving comercial flights from Brisbane or Sydney, then there may still be a delay in receiving an Express Post order.
Given the ever changing challenges of the Pandemic we ask that if you have an urgent order please let us know so we can see how best we can accomodate your needs.
