We work with every tag manufacturer in Australia and understand that lead times may vary due to volume of orders, seasonality or unexpected issues. While we recommend that all orders are placed allowing plenty of time, we’ve created this handy resource to allow customers to plan for the delivery of tags.
All days stated below are working days to despatch from receipt and confirmation of order processing.
If you’re planning to place an order and need assistance please call us to discuss shipping and delivery alternatives such as Express. Express post doesn’t always guarantee same day despatch only the method of shipping but it does “jump the queue”.
If you’re awaiting your order and it’s outside of these expected lead times you should’ve already heard from us. Otherwise please email sales@4tags.com.au or call 1300 813 500 during normal office hours.
Thank you for your understanding.
