As per our new policy under current circumstances we will be delivering as fast and as practically as we can. Our standard service is Monday to Friday. We do not deliver on weekends. Metro Melbourne loosely defined within a 15km arc from the Melbourne CBD is same day delivery if placed by 9am

• How much does delivery cost?

Metro Melbourne is a flat $13.48 delivery fee. Fairdinks regards metro melbourne as an approx 15km radius out of the CBD. Make the most of our flat delivery fees and order up! 

We welcome orders outside Metro Melbourne. Vic Country $19.48 to $25 flat.  There is a fixed shipping rate applied to all orders based on postcode. Sydney Metro when not serviced by our Sydney Franchise for example is $20. However if items are very heavy or bulky shipping will be more. We will contact you but try to select small and light items. Toilet paper (bulky) and slabs of drinks (heavy) are usually not cost effective. Please email support@fairdinks.com.au for delivery quotes. Please provide the product/s you're after. Important: We CANNOT yet send perishables outside Melbourne if not in one of our franchise areas (Sydney and Brisbane).

For Eastern Suburbs, Sydney CBD and much of West and South Sydney go to https://syd.fairdinks.com.au/

Our Qld franchise is currently not operating. Orders can be sent from Melbourne but non perishable items only. Small and light are most cost effective as each ship fee can only take 22kg max.
