Yes, Direct Freight Express are a courier service and require a signature on delivery. It doesn’t have to be you personally, but somebody needs to be at the delivery address.
If you know this is going to be a problem, consider using another address for delivery, such as a work address, OR you can give Authority to Leave during the checkout process.
Please note if you do not give authority to leave and nobody is home to sign for delivery, you may incur a re-delivery fee. Of course we would love to avoid this for you and us!
ATL means you are happy for Direct Freight to leave your order at your door. This is a great way of avoiding re-delivery fees if you are comfortable to take the risk.
What is the risk?
Well, if somebody walks past your house and steals your order, I’m afraid I can’t replace your order for free and Direct Freight are not responsible. Consider where you can leave the kayak in a safe location if you know you arent going to be home.
In most cases it will be Direct Freight Express.
Sometimes, we use Australia Post. If you know that couriers are an issue in your aread please let us know.
We can deliver Australia wide, but there are some areas where you will need to ask for a quote because we can’t do free shipping. These areas are listed on this page under "Excluded Shipping Areas".

Sales to New Zealand are export sales and there is therefore no Australian GST remitted. I have not discounted the prices accordingly, because I am offering free shipping on orders over $99 instead.
Note that you may be required to pay New Zealand customs GST and/or customs duty when the order enters New Zealand.
