Freight
We offer efficient and secure delivery of parcels world-wide at reasonable cost to our customers. It is not our intention to profit from freight charges - these rates are calculated at average cost.Parcels within Australia are sent via Australia Post. For overseas parcels, we have recently signed a new freight contract with another carrier, Spring Global Mail and are able to offer new Airmail rates which are significantly cheaper than the old Airmail rates and in most cases cheaper than the old Economy Air rates. While we recommend Airmail, surface mail and other freight options are available where appropriate. Please just contact us for a quote.
As the rates listed below are averaged costs, we reserve the right to recalculate freight at cost for heavy items, multi-volume sets and journals or bargain books.
Delivery Times
Delivery times are approximate and exclude weekends, however usually parcels will be delivered within the time quoted. Please note that during peak periods there can be delays and if you require your parcel delivered by a certain date please advise when placing the order.
URGENT deliveries within Australia can be sent by EXPRESS POST. Please contact us for details. For urgent delivery overseas or expensive items we recommend Premium Parcel or Spring Courier. Please advise us when placing your order if urgent delivery is required.
Postage consolidation is available for libraries and customers who buy regularly and in quantity. For details please see bulk freight.
Please contact us with any queries.
