Shipping Policy.

Once the parcel has been delivered to your shipping address Film supplies online takes no responsibility for any damage or theft that may occur. If you will not be present to accept your delivery or you feel that your address is unsafe to have a parcel left unattended, we recommend choosing delivery with signature in the Auspost app once tracking is received.

Film Supplies Online will attempt to deliver your items at the earliest possible time in every instance; however delivery time is subject to variation without notice depending on courier and postal delays that are beyond our control. You will be contacted if for any reason unexpected extended delays are to occur.
Unless specified by the Sender, all packages shipped via our Approved Carrier network require a signature upon delivery. If the delivery driver was unable to obtain a signature from someone at the delivery location then it will be kept on board with the driver for redelivery or alternatively, dropped off to a collection point.
Here are some common reasons why a driver would be unable to obtain a signature:
- Access to the delivery drop off location was not possible
- There was no answer at the door when buzzed / knocked
- The drop off location is in a high traffic location where parking was unavailable
- The driver could not locate your specific drop off location
If you gave Authority to Leave it unattended and it still wasn’t delivered:
- The drop off location was not deemed a safe place to leave the item unattended (this helps prevent damage and theft)
- The drop off location is in a high traffic location where parking was unavailable
- The driver could not locate your specific drop off location
- if your friendly delivery driver failed to reach you whilst attempting the delivery of your parcel, we should have already notified you via email and or SMS. This email contains important instructions about how to collect your parcel or schedule a re-delivery to a location or time that suits you.
- Why didn’t the driver just leave my item at the address I gave you?
- Our Approved Carriers are instructed to only deliver items with a signature from the recipient. This is an important step in ensuring your parcel gets delivered to the right person. Alternatively, if you have requested “Authority to Leave” and your item was still not left, the delivery driver may have deemed it unsafe to leave your item at the location requested.
- Ok, so what do I do now – I just want my package!
- The fastest way to arrange a re-delivery or to identify where to collect your item from is to contact the carrier directly by calling their call centre number, quoting your parcel’s ID number. You can find both of these details on your parcel’s tracking page indicated in the screenshot below:
- Pro-tip: Based on experience with Shippit’s Approved Carriers, re-delivery can generally be arranged from the next business day onward.
- I was home but nobody knocked!
- From experience, there may be occasions where its unclear whether an attempt to deliver was actually made. In order for us to improve our service, please let us know via the rating link we send you at the completion of you delivery.
- Finally, if you have some special instructions or would like to let us know of any issues you have encountered you can email our shipping provider at [email protected] or email us at [email protected]
