Delivery costs are calculated at point of checkout using:
Shipping insurance covers any order lost or damaged during transit (if selected during checkout). The cost of insurance is based on a small percentage of your order value. Shipping insurance will not cover orders that have been delivered and given authority to leave, but have gone missing.
Spending $200.00 or more with us qualifies for Free Standard Shipping. If your order is eligible, free standard shipping will automatically be applied at checkout.
Free Standard Shipping is only valid with online and phone orders within Australia except those being delivered to the Northern Territory.
This offer EXCLUDES dangerous goods, over-sized items & items requiring special packaging as they incur a freight surcharge from our carriers. Icons showing whether an item falls into one or more of these categories are visible on the product detail page of affected products.
If your order exceeds $200 but the 'Free Shipping' discount is not displayed at checkout, it is very likely this is because one or more of the items in your cart is an oversize item, dangerous good or requires special packaging.

What happens if I'm not around to take delivery?
If you're not around when delivery is attempted, the driver will either leave your order in a safe place or a calling card will be left telling you how you can collect your order. It is important to note that all our shipping methods assume you give us authority to leave your parcel in a safe place if you are not home. If it is not safe to leave parcels at your address, please change your shipping address to one where it is (such as a workplace).
If you require a signature on delivery regardless, please state this in the 'Delivery Instructions' field when placing your order and we will contact you as this will incur a small additional fee.
We recommend you use the parcel tracking link in your Order Despatch Confirmation email (all our carriers provide one except for Quicklees in the Perth Metro area) to see the most up-to-date information about where your parcel is. Alternatively you can call us and we will track it for you.
As an online-only business unfortunately we are not able to provide a pick-up service.
Although errors are rare they can occasionally happen. If the error is due to our fault we will correct it as quickly as possible without additional cost. Call our office or E-mail us with as much information about your order and the issue, and we will sort things out for you right away.
We recommend using your workplace address as your shipping destination. There are a number of benefits:
Please check your office policy to see if personal deliveries are permitted, then consider shipping your next order to your workplace address.
1. Order Confirmation Email
You will receive a confirmation email within minutes of placing an order. If you paid by PayPal or debit/credit card, the confirmation email will confirm your order. Otherwise, it will notify you that the payment failed and will give you instructions on how to re-submit your payment.
2. Items/Order Shipped Email
You will receive an email to notify you when your order has been shipped. If the order is fulfilled in multiple shipments, you will receive one shipment confirmation email per package.
Heavy or oversize items will incur additional delivery costs and may take longer to be delivered. This is because they require special handling by our carriers, who charge us extra for this service. Any delivery surcharges for these products should be calculated & charged in checkout, but if not you will be contacted prior to despatch with any extra charges for your approval. If you have any questions regarding heavy or over-size products please call us on 1300 308 161 or email us and we can personalise a delivery quote.
Dangerous goods cannot be transported by air, and some require special handling by carriers due to their hazardous nature. As such they may incur a delivery surcharge. The delivery surcharge for these products should be calculated & charged in checkout, but if not you will be contacted prior to despatch with any extra charges for your approval.
If you have any questions regarding dangerous goods please call us on 1300 308 161 or email us.
Some items require special packaging to ensure they can be transported safely and arrive intact. When packaged, these items sometimes form odd shapes, requiring special handling by our carriers. As such they may incur a delivery surcharge. The delivery surcharge for these products should be calculated & charged in checkout, but if not you will be contacted prior to despatch with any extra charges for your approval.
The ‘Delivery instructions’ box on the delivery page of the checkout is used for any instructions to help the driver make delivery of your order (e.g. "3rd house from top of driveway", "Office hours 8-4.30"). We cannot carry out specific requests such as "Deliver between 9-10am" or "Leave parcel in back shed.” Boat Accessories Australia cannot be held responsible if your instructions are not followed, nor will promotion codes entered in this field be applied to your order.
Australia Post may return parcels to us for the following reasons:
We will be in touch with you via email or phone if this occurs. Please be aware resending these parcels will incur a charge towards the additional postage costs, based on standard Australia Post freight fees.
Where the address is confirmed as 100% correct we will re-send the parcel at our expense. Please remember to include the business name if the goods are being delivered to a business address.
Boat Accessories Australia does not take responsibility for parcels that are incorrectly or insufficiently addressed, however we will do all we can to recover the parcel on your behalf.
We will hold returned parcels for a period of four weeks and will attempt contact a minimum of three times. Where we are unable to make contact with you, the order will be cancelled and a credit placed on your account for the amount of the goods only (freight & handling cost will NOT be credited). This credit can be used towards another order, however please be aware it will not appear in your My Account area on our website and as such you will need to call us to place another order.
We use carrier ‘track & trace’ systems to track your orders at every stage of the delivery process, but sometimes a parcel may go missing. In this scenario, we will launch an investigation with the carrier, which may take up to seven business days to be resolved.
Unfortunately this can cause delays as we cannot re-send items or provide a replacement or refund until the investigation is resolved. In the event the goods cannot be located, we will re-send them where possible. Alternatively, a refund may be available upon request.
Generally, parcels can be signed for by any adult at the delivery address. Please check with reception or your mailroom if the order has been sent to a business address.
You can call us on 1300 308 161 or email us.
