CUSTOMER SERVICE

​

Can I pick up my order?

Our products are stored and dispatched from a contract warehouse. Pick-ups from our warehouse is possible, however special arrangements need to be made for this and detailed instructions will be emailed to you. 

Can I be informed when my item is dispatched so that I can be at home for delivery?

When your item is dispatched, you will be sent a confirmation email with your unique Tracking Number. You can enter your Tracking Number through our contract delivery company’s online track-and-trace function to track your item in transit. Our couriers will generally provide an estimated date of arrival, but cannot provide a specific time or phone you prior to delivery. Wherever possible, we suggest using a work address or somewhere else where someone will be present to sign.

What happens if I am not present when the delivery is made?

Our contract with our courier requires them to obtain a signature for proof of delivery. Our delivery contractor will generally not call you on the phone in advance of the delivery to you. If no-one is available to sign for the goods, the courier will leave a note telling you they tried to deliver and you will need to make your own arrangements to pick the goods up from the courier depot. If you elect to have the courier company redeliver the consignment, an additional re-delivery charge will be incurred and you agree that we will make a separate charge on your credit card for this redelivery fee.

Alternatively, during the checkout process when making your purchase, you can elect to waive the need for a signature on delivery and opt to have the goods left at the nominated delivery location. Unicorn accepts no responsibility or liability for goods that are left at any location if you have instructed us not to get a proof of delivery signature. Please understand and accept that other than in exceptional circumstances our delivery contractor will not call you on the phone in advance of the delivery to you.

How do I find out the delivery cost for my item?

The delivery cost is calculated upon checkout of the products you have selected in the shopping cart.  (delivered to your nominated address/suburb). You do not have to fill in any of your personal details for delivery costs to be calculated.

We use express road delivery services from leading freight companies, usually dispatched same day or the next business day depending on the time of your order and stock availability. Actual dispatch time/date depends upon a number of factors (eg demand on the warehouse, transport company services, weather and the like), however if there is going to be a delay in dispatching your order we will advise you of this as soon as we are able to.
