Store Pickup
If you’ve purchased items from our store (www.Connections Catering.com.au), you can opt for Store Pickup. Orders will be available for collection within 1-2 working days after your purchase.
Packaging
We take care in packaging your order securely to ensure it arrives in excellent condition. Items are wrapped with bubble wrap and sturdy boxes where needed.
Pre-Orders & Backorders
If your order includes a pre-order item, your entire order will be held until all items are in stock and ready to ship. If you would like in-stock items shipped sooner, we recommend placing separate orders for in-stock and pre-order items.
Shipping Costs
Shipping costs are calculated based on the weight or volumetric weight of your order, in line with the rates set by Australia Post. We ensure transparency in shipping fees, so the amount you see at checkout is exactly what you’ll pay. There are no hidden fees.
Shipping Delays
Please note that during peak trading periods, such as sales or new product launches, shipping times may be slightly longer than usual. Additionally, we follow both state and national holidays, so be sure to plan ahead if your order is time-sensitive.
