Your order arrival will depend on:

• dispatch time (see 'Order processing Times' below)
• postage type chosen at checkout (Parcel Post or Express Post)
• public holidays and weekends (when Aus Post may not be working)
• Christmas cut off dates, and congestion in the postal network
• your location
• whether you choose Signature on Delivery or Authority To Leave

Please use the Australia Post delivery times calculator (our post code is 4165 Redland Bay):

Alternatively, please see the Australia Post website for their delivery estimates chart: https://auspost.com.au/sending/delivery-speeds-and-coverage#delays

Our processing/dispatch times will need to be considered in addition to the Aus Post delivery time estimates. As our team require time to process and dispatch your order.

We suggest that it’s best to allow time for delays that may be experienced across Australia within the postal network. As much as we’d love to deliver your cloth to your door, pop the kettle on and have a chat, we do have to place our trust in your postie.

See our Christmas Order Cut-Off Dates page for information on ordering in time for Christmas 2023.

We suggest that it’s best to allow time for delays that may be experienced across Australia within the postal network due to:

- natural disasters
- busy Christmas Shopping Season (Oct to Dec)
- COVID-19

Whilst we are diligent with packing and sending your product orders by our promised dispatch times, once the parcel is dispatched we are at the mercy of Australian shipping companies, who are experiencing unprecedented demand due to COVID-19.

As much as we’d love to deliver your cloth to your door, pop the kettle on and have a chat, we do have to place our trust in your postie. Our goal is always to make our Express Shipping option affordable, so please choose Express Shipping if you’re needing your cloth with haste.

For most of our parcels we use Australia Post due to their wide-reaching postal network, and their ability to deliver to PO Boxes, Parcel Collect Boxes, and if delivery is missed customers are able to collect their order from a local Post Office.

Other courier providers are also facing delays and challenges with COVID-19, and whilst these couriers may be faster at times they will not deliver to PO Boxes, Parcel Collect Boxes, and charge significant re-delivery fees for unsuccessful delivery, and their depots are often very far away for collection of a missed delivery.

So we avoid usually couriers and lodge our parcels with Australia Post.

If you require your parcel to be sent with a courier, please ask our friendly team via email on info@tableclothkingdom.com.au and we may be able to assist with a freight quote.

Since the emergence of Covid-19, Australia Post have removed the ‘Next Business Day’ guarantee for Express Post Parcels sent within the Express Network.

Express Post is still the fastest, and most wide-reaching shipping option we have available, however the delivery dates are only estimates as per the Australia Post website:

https://auspost.com.au/sending/delivery-speeds-and-coverage#delays
