Our normal hours of business are:

Delivery Costs

Whilst we will do everything in our power to oblige your delivery request, below are some guidelines for you.

Same day delivery is offered in the Sydney metro area but orders must be placed and accepted by 10.00am, otherwise delivery may have to be next day, or you have the option to pay for 'express delivery'. In some cases, depending on the product ordered and delivery destination same day 'standard' delivery can still be achieved.

Limited courier services are available on Saturdays.

We do not deliver on Sundays. If you send an order for delivery on a Sunday it will be delivered on Saturday or Monday, depending on availability of couriers.

Should you want your delivery to be made as soon as possible, without paying for express delivery, please note this in the 'Special Instructions' field when placing your order.

Delivery Costs:
On the first page of the 'check out' you will be given two options for delivery. Standard or Express.

Standard Delivery – each state is listed and will have a delivery fee and an approximate time it will take for that delivery.

Express delivery – Send a Basket network Sydney Metro
Same day if ordered by 2pm Monday – Friday (this may exclude Fruit Baskets)
- note deliveries in some cases may take place outside business hours –

Express Delivery – Via Australia Post
Express delivery is normally next business day delivery (if ordered by 3pm) as per Australia Post Express delivery schedule.

Should the delivery charge be less than the estimated cost (as charged to you), additional product will be added to the basket to make up to the full value spent. All long distant delivery hampers will be packed in presentation boxes and not baskets, as our product is better protected when boxed and baskets are bulky and more expensive to deliver.

The rates below are for a standard size 5kg parcel. All larger hampers weighing more than 5 kg may have an additional delivery fee charged.

CORPORATE AND PROMOTIONAL

Send a Basket is very experienced in preparing quantity orders for client and staff gifts and incentives. This service is available all year round but is especially popular at Christmas time, when a new range is launched to cater for this celebration.

All gifts are individually prepared, no matter how large the quantity. It has always been our policy to offer a personal service, in preference to the shrink wrap, one bow, production assembly line method.

We can prepare gifts to your required specifications and arrange delivery too.

Please consider lead times when personalised promotional items are required since manufacturers and suppliers need time to quote as well.

All quantity orders require a 50% deposit on confirmation of the order with the balance due on date of delivery. Substantial quantities may attract some preferential opportunities.

We look forward to your enquiries. Please do not hesitate to phone or email us to discuss your ideas.
