All orders will be dispatched on a signature-on-delivery courier. All parcels will be delivered to the provided address and will require a signature on receipt. Providing a work address for delivery is recommended if no one is home during business hours. Due to security issues, the parcel cannot be left unattended. Where no one is home to sign for the parcel, a card will be left detailing the nearest pick up point.

This is subject to the courier or delivery provider's protocol and policy.

Unfortunately, we are unable to deliver to post office boxes at this time. A signature is required on delivery for all New Zealand orders.

If for any reason you do not receive your order within the targeted delivery time, please contact us within seven days of that order's dispatch date.

We will do our best to update you on the location of your parcel in conjunction with the courier or delivery service provider.

You may cancel your online order provided we have not already dispatched it. We’ll refund the cost of your order to the credit card you purchased with. Please contact us as soon as possible – we’ll do our best to accommodate your request.

An order confirmation will appear as the final step in your order process. You’ll also receive an email confirmation with an order number and a purchase summary. Once your order has been shipped, you’ll receive an additional email confirming the shipment. This email will include tracking information (where applicable).

We make every effort to ensure that your order arrives in perfect condition. It is normal for the shipping carton to show some wear; however, if damage has occurred to the product(s) inside, please contact us at (info@homeessentialsnz.com), and we’ll do our best to resolve any issues.
