EquipOutdoors Shipping Policy

At EquipOutdoors we aim to process and get your order delivered to you as quickly as possible at a fair & reasonable price.
Orders for in stock items received prior to 2.00 pm Tuesday to Friday are typically dispatched the following business day**
Orders received over the weekend are processed the following Monday and orders received on Mondays are processed the following day (Tuesday) and dispatched accordingly (Statutory holiday days excluded)

**PLEASE NOTE: The above time-frames are subject to change depending on our order volumes. Order volumes can change dramatically depending on current sale promotions, seasonal demands, holiday periods etc. As we do not operate on Statutory Holiday days this will also delay the processing of orders placed during that time.

**Statutory Holidays, Peak Season Periods & Business Days

Dispatch and delivery times will be impacted by statutory holidays and peak seasonal periods. Courier companies do not operate on statutory holiday days. During peak seasonal periods due to the large volume of parcels being sent within the courier networks, deliveries may be slightly delayed. However, we will still do our best to process and dispatch your order as quickly as we can.
Business days are classed as Monday – Friday and exclude weekends & statutory holiday days.

Orders shipped within New Zealand

For local orders within New Zealand sent from our distribution centre, Post Haste Couriers is our choice of carrier. All deliveries are sent on a ‘Signature Required' basis. If you do not require a signature, select the “signature not required on delivery” option at the checkout.
NB: Only select this option if you feel it is safe and secure for your goods to be left by the delivery driver. EquipOutdoors or the delivery company do not take any responsibility for lost or missing parcels if they are delivered on a signature not required basis.

Normal Dispatch & Estimated Shipping Times

• North Island delivery target 1-3 business days from time of dispatch.
• South Island delivery target 3-5 business days from time of dispatch.

NB: Deliveries to RD addresses may take an additional 1-3 business days from time of dispatch.

Large / heavy or bulky items such as large tents or dimensionally long items will be sent via Mainfreight road transport. Due to the size / weight and nature of these products, delivery can take a little longer but is usually 3-7 days from when we dispatch the product. In some remote areas across New Zealand your goods may have to collected from the nearest delivery company freight depot.

Additional freight charges apply for non-standard items eg: Dangerous goods or for deliveries to rural areas, non-standard addresses or unusual locations e.g Waiheke, Great Barrier, Stuart or Chatham Islands. If you address is not on either of the main North or South Islands of New Zealand then a delivery surcharge will apply to your order. Saturday deliveries or deliveries outside normal delivery hours also attract an additional charge.

International Shipping

Currently we have suspended all international shipments. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic we have not been able to provide a reliable and cost effective service for internatiional deliveries and have suspended all international services. This will be reviewed at a future date and when we are confident we can provide a reliable and affordable service we will again offer international shipping.
