At this unpredictable time during the COVID-19 pandemic and an unprecedented increase in online shopping, Australia Post are handling more parcels than ever before.

Due to this, Australia Post are not currently offering any reliable delivery time-frame estimates, and due to the pandemic, postage delays have become the norm across Australia.

Please see the Australia Post website for their delivery estimates chart: https://auspost.com.au/service-updates/domestic-delivery-times#delays

and scroll down to “Express Post and Parcel Post” then select your delivery state.

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 we delivery dates are only estimates as per the Australia Post website:

FREE Standard Shipping On Orders Over $100

Please note:

The $100 free post minimum order amount does not apply to the order total before discounts/coupons are applied, only after.

Free shipping offer is only for standard shipping, not express (due to high express shipping costs).

Here are some ideas to make use of this great chance to save on shipping:

- Choose a second tablecloth colour for your collection and so you’re prepared for any occasion!

- When you entertain try matching your indoor and outdoor tables with the same colour tablecloth.

- Spoil a friend or family member with a tablecloth gift in their favourite colour (just ask their table size or do a sneaky measure!).

- If you possess excellent foresight then enhance your next event with something for Christmas, Easter, Mother’s Day or Valentine’s Day!

After your order is placed, our Tablecloth fairies will lovingly place them into your package and send them off with our carrier pigeon. 

Please allow one to two business days for our tablecloth fairies to process your order.

For order dispatch please see the following table for time-frames:

For orders placed on: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday the processing/packing time is: 1 – 2 business days

For orders placed on: Friday, Saturday, Sunday the processing/packing time is: 2 business days

We process orders diligently, with attention to order notes, product quality, delivery details and order items, to ensure accuracy for your important order.

Please keep Public Holidays in mind when placing your order, and add a buffer for public holidays. We are unable to pack and dispatch orders on Australian, Queensland or Redlands City (our local area) Public Holidays.

Australia Post also does not operate on Public Holidays so this will add to the delivery timeframe of your parcel’s journey.

Weekend orders (placed Friday to Sunday) will be processed on Monday and dispatched on Tuesday. We prioritise Express Post orders (so these may be sent on a Monday depending on the volume of orders).

We suggest that it’s best to allow time for delays that are being experienced across Australia within the postal network.

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.

Please see below for an indication of when you can expect your order (timeframes below reflect COVID-19 delays impacting Australia Post):

Express Shipping 3 to 5 Business Days depending on your location

Standard Shipping 4 to 10 Business Days depending on your location

PLEASE NOTE: Please allow for unexpected delays in the postal network. Don’t forget to add a buffer for public holidays. We are unable to pack and dispatch orders on Australian, Queensland or Redlands City (our local area) Public Holidays. Australia Post also does not operate on Public Holidays so this will add to the delivery time-frame of your parcel’s journey.

Due to the large volume of orders our small family business receives during Christmas Season, we are unable to follow up or enquire with Australia Post about your order parcel if it is delayed or not arriving in time for Christmas.

We provide a tracking number with your order dispatch email which you will be able to provide to Australia Post if you would like to enquire with them about your parcel.

These enquiries must be lodged with Australia Post directly by you (the parcel receiver) please.
