1. Deliveries
A 3rd party freight vendor may be contracted to perform your delivery service. In order to ensure that your delivery is successful, your participation is needed. Below are answers to commonly asked questions about INDUSTRY KITCHENS deliveries:
1.1 When will I receive my delivery?
We’ll let you know how long you can expect to wait. Please note that this is not a guaranteed delivery date for your order. Some areas may take longer due to the frequency of deliveries to the delivery postcode. Our system calculates this estimated date considering the total amount of time to process your order including packaging, transit time to the delivery provider, and transit time to the delivery address. Remember some items are made to order, may be out of stock from our suppliers or may have to be imported upon order of said goods.
When placing your order, we consider these factors when calculating the Estimated Delivery Date:
Order Processing: The amount of time it takes for us to prepare your order for shipping. This typically takes 1 – 2 days, however, some orders may ship within as few as 2 hours and some may take up to 5 days.
Transit Time: The amount of time it takes your order to leave our distribution centre and arrive at the local delivery carrier.
When the delivery provider receives your order and is ready to schedule a delivery date, they may attempt to contact you at the telephone number that you provided in your order. At that time, they will let you know what days of the week they are able to deliver to your area. Deliveries will be made during business hours. The delivery company will make every effort to deliver on the day advised.
Delivery Exclusions
We will arrange delivery of your purchases to your business. Some items may take longer for delivery, and items ordered together may not arrive on the same day. Orders are often made from many suppliers and our warehouses, those suppliers may release products directly to you at different times. The delivery service is usually provided by an independent service provider. We are not always able to deliver to PO Boxes or APOs. Delivery orders are not available in some areas. Shipping rates and fees cover the processing, handling, packing, and delivery of your order to a metro address – they do not include surcharges that might apply to certain items.
Free delivery offer when available is at the discretion of management and a minimum order applies.
1.2 How to prepare for your delivery?
Details at the checkout must be correct. The Delivery Company has been contracted to perform the delivery service curb-side at the delivery address. Please make sure there's adequate access and space to complete the delivery. If you have requested special delivery instructions and have accepted and made payment for this additional delivery upgrade, prior to delivery, ensure that there is adequate room to make the delivery considering doorways, hallways, staircases and elevators and/or you are available during the time period window requested. Additional fees and charges may apply after delivery if the information supplied to the freight company is incorrect or not advised prior to shipping.
1.3 Who needs to sign for my delivery?
Either you or your representative, that is 18 years of age or older, must be present to receive the merchandise at the agreed upon day and time window. If no one is available to receive the delivery, a re-delivery fee or ‘futile fee’ may be applied to your order for large items. This agreement is with you and INDUSTRY KITCHENS. Neither INDUSTRY KITCHENS nor the 3rd party Delivery Company that has been contracted by INDUSTRY KITCHENS to perform the delivery will be held responsible if you decide to hire a 3rd party contractor to accept, receive and sign the handover of items without the notations of visible defects of packaging, damaged items, or missing merchandise.
1.4 What am I responsible for upon delivery?
For deliveries under $2000 or smaller parcels by our freight partners such as TNT, TOLL, Australia Post, Startrack, Couriers Please, Fastway as examples but this list is not exhaustive and may be updated from time to time; if no one is able to accept the delivery you acknowledge that the delivery is allowed to be placed at a location on the premises without a receiver signature & authorise 'AUTHORITY TO LEAVE", such as a back/front door. For all other deliveries please be sure to sign the Delivery Order Note in the presence of the Delivery Company representative to indicate your delivery has been received. Examine your order upon delivery to ensure that there are no visible signs of damaged, missing or incorrect pieces. In the event that there are missing, damaged or incorrect packages, please retain the item(s), indicate the problem on the Delivery Note and contact us within 24 hours of your delivery. A signed delivery receipt, without notations of missing, damaged or incorrect item(s) represents your acceptance of the complete order in perfect condition. For any other problem with your order, please refer to our return policy.
1.5 What additional fees may apply?
There may be circumstances that require additional payment by you if the conditions mentioned have not been met or you request special services outside of our standard delivery. This may include a time slot delivery, sometimes available or other requests such as stairs & putting the equipment into position or de-palletising, uncrating, unpacking & wrapping. Most commonly this would be a re-delivery or ‘futile fee’ from a 3rd party logistics company. This can occur because of incorrect information about the delivery address and/or details being entered at the checkout on the website and/or not being available by telephone to direct the delivery driver to difficult to find locations. Any additional fees must be paid to Industry Kitchens as soon as possible as to not further delay the re-delivery by the 3rd party logistics company.
