Shipping Delivery | The Vet Shed Online Pet Supplies Store Handling pet supply deliveries is one of our priorities here at The Vet Shed. We make sure that your pet product will be delivered to you safely & in good condition.
We believe that we offer the best freight rates, anyone charging less than us for postage is generally using non insured and untrackable mail and when you read their terms and conditions you will often find that they do not take any responsibility for damage or loss of goods in transit. For the dollar or two you might save on the postage you are putting yourself at risk of losing the order and your money. Shop with Vet Shed for complete peace of mind!
What are the different types of Shipping options?
All orders are sent via barcoded trackable mail and are insured.
Depending on your postcode there may be several options available to you. Courier, Eparcel Post or Express Post. Express post is via air and will generally always be the fastest. If there is no courier option at the checkout then we currently do not have a courier that services your postcode so you will only have the Australia post options available
Courier and eparcel are via road transport.
The website will calculate all postage charges for you according to the weight of your order, your delivery address and delivery options available to us. It will give you an accurate postage amount before any payment etc is required.
Any queries just give us a call 1300 735 995 we are here to help :)

Q. Where is my tracking number?
If you haven't yet received a tracking number, that means we're working on processing your order. Your tracking number will be sent via email as soon as your order leaves our warehouse.
Q. My tracking number isn't working?
Australia Post states 'An 'invalid tracking ID' could mean: *You’ve entered the wrong tracking number Please double-check your tracking number and make sure you’ve entered all digits correctly, in the right order. *The number isn’t recognised by our system * Your item might not have been scanned or entered into our system yet. Please wait at least 24 hours and then try again *There might sometimes be a delay in showing some track events for technical reasons
Due to the number of parcels Fastway picks up from us they may only scan the items once back at the depot, hence why a parcel may not be scanning when you check. Please wait at least 24 hours and then try again.
