FAQ
Delivery
Freight is free on any order of 12 bottles or more, $7.50 for anything less than 12… anywhere in the country. That's right, anywhere. Even Tasmania! I'm not sure if you noticed it but we have 14 bottle cartons. Pretty cool huh?
Please note, if you are ordering multiple mixed packs, to keep costs down so we can pass on further savings to you, our system will pack in the most efficient way. This means your delivery may not be packed in exactly the same configuration as appears on your order.
winedirect.com.au uses the specialized wine delivery network at Australia Post to deliver your goods. This service may only deliver to the adult purchaser or an adult person nominated by the purchaser and requires a signed declaration from the person accepting the delivery stating their name and that they are 18 or over. You may be asked to produce an approved form of identification at the discretion of the delivery person. A minor can be fined if they lie about their age, or if they show false evidence of age/identity in order to take delivery of liquor.
If you choose to have the goods delivered to your home or business and you are out when the delivery is attempted, a card will be placed in your letterbox and your package will be securely stored at your local post office for collection. The post office keeps your parcel for a maximum of 14 days.
Alternatively, during the checkout process you can elect to have the your wine left at the delivery address in a specific location i.e. under the verandah, behind the side gate, in the dog kennel etc. if no one is home. Doing so removes the requirement for a signature and passes on responsibility to the purchaser for any issues that may occur post delivery i.e. wine gets damaged by inclement weather, some bozo flogs it etc. Wine will not be left unattended even if requested by the purchaser if the delivery person deems it unsafe to do so or if it is easily accessible by any person under the age of 18.
Delivery can take up to 10 working days, but this time frame can be shorter depending on the overall pressure on the delivery network at that particular time, your distance from major centres and product availability.
We wouldn't recommend it. The use of parcel lockers are limited to parcels to a maximum of 16kg. Many of our 12 packs and above are above this limit so if you utilise parcel lockers your wine may be diverted to the local post office instead. For more info, you can visit the Australia Post FAQ page here.
