As soon as you place your order you shall receive an order confirmation e-mail from us to confirm that we have received your order in our system and pre-authorised your credit card for the purchase.

We then confirm that your items are in stock and available for immediate shipment. If your items are on backorder or unavailable, we will void the pre-authorisation and reach out to you via e-mail.

Areas That We Cannot Deliver To

Due to the limited access of our carriers, there are certain postcodes that we are unable to deliver to. If our freight partners can't deliver to your address we will reach out to you via email or phone with 5 business days of your order to discuss options.

Deliveries to some areas may not be displayed accurately on our website. We may request an additional delivery fee to cover freight costs.

We also must have a physical address to deliver your items to. We cannot deliver items to a PO Box or Parcel Locker.

Home Delivery Areas

If you'd like your item delivered to your home address, please ensure you're within the postcodes listed on this list. If your home address is not on the list, please contact our support team before ordering to ensure we can deliver your items to you. 

Heavy Items

To be able to give you the best possible shipping price all products with weights over 25kg will require you to assist the driver with off-loading. If you are unable to assist please let us know as we would need to include a Tail Lift for the delivery, this does have an additional cost of $115 at a minimum.

International Orders

Most of our products are made specifically for the Australian market and to Australian Standards, therefore, we recommend you check with your local authorities that the product is suitable before ordering.

We will happily ship our products to international customers. Due to the extremely wide variety of product dimensions, we will provide an up to date shipping price quote for you upon request. Simply send a quotation request to hello@airkayaksdirect.com.au

Should you wish to proceed after receiving a quotation we'll prepare an order for immediate payment through our ultra secure online payment gateway.

Please be aware that this is in the hands of the courier companies we use to deliver your goods, and is completely out of our control. 

Although it can be very frustrating waiting for an item to arrive after it's estimated delivery date, we cannot offer any refunds or replacements until the courier has deemed the item as lost in transit. This may take up to 4 weeks from the initial order date

Lost Items In Transit

If the courier company deems your items as being lost in transit then we will send a replacement item out at no extra cost to you.

Redelivery Fees And Authority To Leave
