Shipping Policy
Last Updated: 25 August 2026
At Scavenger Supplies, we are committed to providing reliable and efficient delivery of our products throughout Australia. This Shipping Policy explains how orders placed through www.scavenger.com.au are processed, shipped and delivered.
1. Shipping Locations
We currently offer delivery to locations throughout Australia.
Some products may have delivery restrictions due to their size, weight, dangerous goods classification, or specific transport requirements. If additional freight arrangements are required, we will contact you before dispatch.
For large, bulky, palletised or specialised items, freight may be arranged separately from standard parcel delivery.
2. Order Processing
Orders are generally processed during normal business hours, Monday to Friday, excluding Western Australian public holidays.
Orders will generally be dispatched once payment has been received and the products are confirmed as available.
While we aim to process orders promptly, processing times may vary depending on:
- Product availability
- Order size and quantity
- Special-order or customised products
- Freight requirements
- Dangerous goods or specialised transport requirements
- Supplier availability
If there is an unexpected delay with your order, we will make reasonable efforts to contact you and provide an updated estimated dispatch or delivery timeframe.
3. Delivery Times
Delivery times depend on the destination, freight provider, product availability and the type of delivery selected.
Estimated delivery timeframes are provided as a guide only and are not guaranteed unless specifically agreed in writing.
Delivery may take longer during:
- Public holidays
- Peak trading periods
- Severe weather events
- Remote-area deliveries
- Freight network disruptions
- Unforeseen transport delays
Once an order has been collected by the freight carrier, delivery is subject to the carrier's operating network and conditions.
4. Shipping Costs
Shipping costs are calculated based on factors including:
- Delivery location
- Product type
- Product weight and dimensions
- Number of items ordered
- Pallet or freight requirements
- Delivery service selected
Where possible, applicable shipping charges will be displayed during the checkout process.
For large, bulky, palletised, specialised orders or dangerous goods Scavenger Supplies may need to provide a separate freight quotation. If the freight cost differs significantly from the amount calculated online, we will contact you before dispatch.
5. Freight for Large or Bulky Items
Certain products cannot be shipped using standard parcel services due to their size, weight or transport requirements.
These products may require:
- Pallet freight
- Tailgate delivery
- Specialised transport
- Commercial delivery arrangements
- A suitable delivery address with appropriate access
Additional freight charges may apply.
If special delivery arrangements are required, we will contact you to confirm the requirements before dispatch.
6. Dangerous Goods and Restricted Products
Some fire protection products and related equipment may be classified as dangerous goods or require specialised transportation, an additional invoice will be sent with dangerous goods shipping invoice as this is charged at an extra rate.
Where applicable, these products will be shipped in accordance with relevant transport requirements and carrier conditions.
This may result in:
- Additional freight charges
- Different delivery timeframes
- Delivery restrictions
- Requirements for a suitable delivery address
We reserve the right to contact you before dispatch if additional freight arrangements are required.

Please ensure that your delivery address includes:

- Street number and street name
- Suburb

- Site access
- Loading docks
- Forklift availability
- Delivery hours

Additional charges may apply where a carrier is required to make additional delivery attempts or special delivery arrangements.
9. Tracking
Where tracking is available, tracking information will generally be provided once your order has been dispatched.
Tracking information is supplied by the freight provider and may take some time to become active after the order has left our premises.
Customers can use the tracking information to monitor the progress of their delivery.
10. Delayed Deliveries
While we work with freight providers to deliver orders as quickly as possible, Scavenger Fire & Safety cannot guarantee delivery dates where delivery is being performed by an external carrier.
If your order has not arrived within a reasonable timeframe, please contact us so we can investigate the delivery with the relevant freight provider.
If we are unable to supply an order within the applicable timeframe, we will work with you to provide an appropriate solution in accordance with the Australian Consumer Law.
11. Lost or Damaged Deliveries
Please inspect your delivery as soon as reasonably possible after receiving it.
If your order appears to have been damaged during transit, please contact us as soon as possible and provide:
- Your order number
- Details of the damage
- Photographs of the packaging

If you receive an incorrect item or an item is missing from your order, please contact Scavenger Fire & Safety as soon as possible.
Please provide your order number and details of the issue so that we can investigate and arrange an appropriate resolution.
13. Authority to Leave
Where a delivery service offers an authority-to-leave option, customers may choose to have their goods left at the nominated address.
Customers should consider the security and suitability of the location before selecting this option.
For valuable, bulky, commercial or specialised equipment, we may require a signature or other delivery confirmation.
14. Click & Collect
Where Click & Collect is offered for a particular product, collection instructions will be provided after the order has been processed.
Customers must wait until they receive confirmation that their order is ready for collection before attending the nominated collection location.
A suitable form of identification and order confirmation may be required when collecting an order.
15. International Shipping
International shipping is not automatically available for all products.
If you require delivery outside Australia, please contact Scavenger Fire & Safety before placing your order so we can determine whether the requested products can be exported and provide a freight quotation.
International orders may be subject to additional freight charges, customs requirements, taxes, duties, permits and import restrictions.
Any applicable international charges are the responsibility of the customer unless otherwise agreed in writing.
16. Products on Backorder or Special Order
Some products may be temporarily unavailable, made to order or sourced specifically for a customer.
Where an item is unavailable at the time of purchase, we will provide an estimated timeframe where reasonably possible.
If a significant delay occurs, we will contact you to discuss the available options.
17. Changes to Orders
If you need to change your delivery address or modify your order, please contact us as soon as possible.
Once an order has been dispatched, we may be unable to make changes to the delivery address or order contents.
