Shipping & Payment

Shipping

All orders are processed within 1 to 2 business days (excluding weekends and holidays) after receiving your order confirmation.

If an item is out of stock, due to an inventory error or being sold in-store at the same time as your order is placed online, we will contact you to ask if you would like for new stock to come in before sending your order or partially refund the amount for the missing item.

Courier

We currently only courier items on a case-by-case basis. Contact us at orders@livingrural.nz for a quote.

This is because of the large number of products and the very diverse range of sizes and weights. Our product database may be updated over time to include shipping dimensions and weight for automatic calculation, but this is not currently possible.

Local Delivery

We deliver using our own vehicle for $10 to the Wellington area, up as far as Otaki and over as far as Kaitoke (not Wairarapa).

Deliveries to the Hutt Valley are currently free to the following postcodes:

  • 5010..5012
  • 5018
  • 5019
  • 5034
  • 5371
Free delivery to Hutt Valley

The following extra fees are charged for certain products:

  • bales of hay/baleage: $2 per bale
  • posts and timber: $30 flat fee (for a standard “trailer load” of timber, does not apply to truckloads of timber)

NOTE: We may adjust these fees and boundaries on a per-order basis based on actual road distance travelled from Pāuatahanui.

Deliveries will be made in 1 to 3 days, but may be scheduled to your area once per week depending on the number and location of orders. You will be notified of the day/time it will be delivered via email or SMS.
