  Our preferred courier is Australia Post, though we reserve the right to use other freighters as deemed necessary. We do not deliver beyond Australia.
  Heavy / Bulky Goods
  Will be delivered by private couriers and thus must be to a physical address, NOT a PO Box. These items will incur a fixed shipping cost which will be shown in the shipping cost.
  Dangerous Good Charge - $40 minimum
  Dangerous goods cannot be sent via Australia post and therefore must be sent via courier and will incur a minimum extra fee of $40.
  Central Victorian Local Freight
  A network of local freighters service central Victoria with same or next day service. In this case Heavy Goods and Dangerous Goods may be substantially cheaper. The list of postcodes this applies to changes frequently so cannot be posted here but rest assured that if a local freight option is available that will be used and freight costs accordingly reduced. This may result in a shipping refund!
  Many art materials are fragile and require extra care in packing and handling. While there is no extra cost for this, items like paper may often end up being classified as bulky. To reduce freight costs we recommend a minimum purchase of 5 sheets of standard size art papers.
  Fulfillment of back orders
  Products may display as in stock online, however during the period of the order being received to our physical store, the item may have changed to a status of 'out of stock' due to sales crossover from instore purchases. On these occasions one of our staff members will contact you and offer to order the product in (Australian suppliers only) and ship the order complete, when the ordered product has arrived. This may delay shipping by up to 7-10 days. We can also arrange to remove the product from the order and ship the balance of the goods to you. At all times we will keep you informed and will be guided by your instructions.
  Unfortunately we do not offer freight free shipping of back orders.
  We wish to advise that Art Supplies Castlemaine is not responsible for any loss suffered due to damage, delay or non delivery by the courier company as Art Supplies Castlemaine’s responsibility ends when the goods are loaded on to the carrier. Customers, if they so desire, can arrange their own transport.
  In the event that no one is available to accept the delivery of bulky items, the courier will leave a card in your letterbox with details to arrange a redelivery which may be at your cost.
  It is our goal that you receive your art materials safely and in good order.
