FAQS
How long does it take to dispatch?
Estimated dispatch timeframes depend on the individual Supplier and will usually be 1-2 working days after payment has been received. Our Suppliers cannot guarantee delivery on any specific dates or times. However, we will do our best to communicate with you via email should any unforeseen circumstances arise.
Note: Delivery timeframes start after payment has been received and the item has been dispatched from our Supplier’s warehouse.
What if you provide an undeliverable postcode?
Our Suppliers do their best to offer Australia-wide shipping. However, there are still some postcodes in remote areas that are undeliverable for some SKUs. If you provide an undeliverable postcode, the order will be cancelled and refunded automatically via email.
Who is responsible for missing or damaged packages?
In the case of missing or damaged packages, our Supplier will be held liable.
What if you provide the wrong postage address?
Once you’ve received an order through D & H Hardware, the order details cannot be changed. You can cancel the order as a D & H Hardware customer and resubmit the order with the correct address. However, please note that this may result in additional charges to the order. To avoid these charges, we encourage you to double-check the accuracy of your shipping address before placing an order.
