Delivery

SHARING IS CARING  offers a same-day delivery service across Melbourne, Geelong, Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast via local courier.  These same areas are also serviced by a set-day delivery where you can select your future delivery date and we will deliver on that date via local courier.  The rest of Australia is serviced via Australia Post Express Post.  Australia Post orders are dispatched within 48 hours of order being placed (majority of orders are dispatched the day of order being placed).  90% of Australia Post orders are delivered within 1-2 days of dispatch however, sometimes they can take a little bit longer (up to 5 days) depending on delivery location and Australia Post timelines.  Please refer to Australia Post shipping timelines for an accurate and up to date estimate of current shipping times.  The cost of delivery is dependent on delivery type and area.  Delivery costs start at $18.  Delivery costs are subject to change and will be updated on our website as the changes occur.  Our delivery times are 9am - 7pm, Monday to Sunday.  Please note we are not able to guarantee delivery at a specific time of day.  A block out delivery date is a date where we are not offering delivery.  This applies to same day and set day delivery and will be shown as an unclickable date on the calendar at check out.  Block out delivery dates are rare.  In the circumstance of a gift not being received by the recipient, please email hello@sharingiscaringaustralia.com and we will investigate with our couriers and provide a resolution within 24 hours.  Unfortunately, we cannot send to PO Boxes as part of our same-day or next-day delivery options. 

​

Third-party courier service

SHARING IS CARING  uses reputable third-party contract couriers to deliver gifts across Australia, including but not limited to Australia Post. Due to the reliance on third-party courier services, SHARING IS CARING  cannot be held responsible for delays during transit. Whilst every care is taken to ensure accurate and safe delivery, we cannot guarantee unforeseen circumstances, such as damage or delay that results in a gift not arriving at a certain time or place. Once a gift has been delivered to a concierge or front desk at the address specified we cannot be held responsible for the gift getting to the recipient. In regards to hospital deliveries, if the patient has been discharged the gift will be returned to SHARING IS CARING  HQ and a re-delivery fee will apply. In the unfortunate event of a delay or delivery issue, SHARING IS CARING  will work with the customer to assist in resolving any issues that may be a result of a third-party failure.

 

Undeliverable items

A gift is considered as undeliverable if (i) the Recipient’s address is incomplete, incorrect, or cannot be located, (ii) there is no one at home to receive the gift and there is nowhere safe to leave the gift  (iii) the delivery is refused by the recipient before opening the package.

All undeliverable gifts will either be (i) re-directed to a local post office for collection by the intended recipient or (ii) returned to SHARING IS CARING  HQ where the customer will be liable for all charges and fees incurred in returning, storing, or disposing of an undeliverable gift. When a gift is re-directed to a local post office a courier card will be left at the recipient’s address to inform them of their local collection point. Due to the perishable nature of some of our products (e.g. flowers), it is strongly advised that recipients collect their gift within 24 hours from the collection point indicated on the courier card. SHARING IS CARING  cannot be held responsible for delays in the collection and pick-up of gifts and is not liable for the quality and condition of perishable goods, such as flowers, that have not been collected within a 24-hour time frame from the date and time of attempted delivery.

 

Units and apartment buildings

Couriers sometimes face problems with delivering goods to units and apartment buildings which can result in gifts arriving late, going missing, or being returned to the closest SHARING IS CARING  HQ. If gifts are being delivered to an apartment or unit address the customer is responsible for ensuring that the recipient will be available on the day to receive the gift. If the recipient is not home and the courier cannot gain access to the building to leave the gift in a safe place the gift will be deemed ‘undeliverable’ and either be (i) re-directed to a local post office for collection by the intended recipient or (ii) returned to SHARING IS CARING  HQ where the customer will be liable for all charges and fees incurred in returning, storing or disposing of an undeliverable gift.

In the event of an undeliverable gift being re-directed to a local post office, a courier card will be left at the original delivery address to inform the recipient where to collect the gift. SHARING IS CARING  is not responsible for gifts not collected by the recipient.

 

Incorrect and incomplete addresses

Please be very careful in providing us with correct, complete, and up-to-date address information. If you provide us with an incorrect or incomplete address and we deliver your order as per your instructions, we can accept no responsibility for the mistake. If we are unable to deliver to an incorrect or incomplete address and the order is returned to SHARING IS CARING  HQ, we can redeliver but the customer will incur an additional delivery charge as well as a product replacement fee for any perishable items, such as flowers, that need to be replenished. If you identify that you have provided incorrect or incomplete delivery information, please email hello@sharingiscaringaustralia.com with correct delivery details.  If your order has not been processed we will be able to update delivery details.

 

Substitution and Seasonal Availability Disclaimer

SHARING IS CARING  endeavors to fulfill all orders in compliance with product descriptions, however, flower orders may be subject to seasonal and product availability. SHARING IS CARING  reserves the right to substitute flower varieties when necessary, however, we will always take utmost care to ensure the final product is similar in quality to the requested item. For our gifts, where a product is not available, we will substitute for a similar product with equal or higher value. Substitutions and alterations to the style of a product will always be of similar quality and value.

 

Days of operation

We operate seven days a week, year round.  Black out delivery dates are dates we do not offer our same day and set day delivery service.  These dates are shown as unclickable dates on the calendar at check out.  Black out delivery dates may also be advertised on our website.  Australia Post delivery dates are subject to the operation dates of Australia Post.  

 

Warranties, refunds, and cancellations

Due to our quick turnaround times, we’re unable to refund if you change your mind about a ‘same day’ purchase or if we have already ‘processed’ your set day or Australia Post order.  This can be seen by receiving the ‘processing’ email. We are also unable to offer a refund if incorrect delivery information is given to us. It’s the sender’s responsibility to make sure they provide us with detailed and accurate delivery instructions. If the wrong delivery address is given we can re-deliver, but this may be at an additional cost. Cancellations can be requested by emailing hello@sharingiscaringaustralia.com or by dropping us a line on (03) 4227 3751. Every flower is different and some are more delicate than others. You should expect your flowers to last at least 3 days. If for any reason (excluding extreme spikes in temperature) they last less than 3 days, or you’re not happy with your order, please let us know immediately so we can do our best to put things right. If you are at all unsatisfied with our gift order, please let us know within 48 hours so that we can discuss and find resolution.
