How long does delivery take? 

We dispatch all orders unless otherwise requested, within one working day of receiving payment into our account. When you pay via the PayFast Payment Portal, we receive your payment automatically as soon as you have paid.

  • Courier delivery takes 2 – 5 business/working days depending on the order’s destination.
  • Deliveries are made Monday to Friday between 9 am – 5 pm.
  • There are no deliveries on weekends or public holidays.
  • Main City Center and Regional Area delivery takes 2 – 5 business/working days.
  • In remote areas deliveries can take up to 7 working days.
  • Your delivery address should be at an address where somebody you trust will be available to accept your order at any time. Anyone at the delivery address can accept the delivery. In order for us to prove that delivery of an order has been completed, we do not have to prove that you personally received the goods, but rather that any person at the delivery address signed for the delivery.
  • Unforeseen circumstances, for example, adverse weather, closed roads, strikes etc. could prolong the delivery time. This is rare but it does happen, therefore a ‘late’ delivery is not grounds for a refund or cancellation of the order. However, if your delivery has not been delivered after the estimated times shown above, please contact us with your order number so that we can follow up on the matter.
