Shipping policy


All orders are processed within 1 to 2 business days (excluding weekends and Public Holidays) after receiving your order confirmation email. You will receive another notification when your order has shipped. In most cases, if you order non-plant products before 12.00pm (Melbourne Time) we will endeavour to ship the same day. Our busiest order processing times are after the weekend where we will be shipping orders as soon as possible in order of the date/time received.

Domestic Shipping Rates and Estimates

Shipping charges for your order will be calculated and displayed at checkout. Many of our items have Free Shipping and this is stated on the product page for the item. Shipping will automatically be calculated at checkout. Free Shipping is Standard Delivery and can be upgraded to Express Delivery for an additional fee. Orders containing Plants will be sent exclusively via Express Post.

We ship using Australia Post parcel delivery and all orders offer tracking. Australia Post is continuing to experience some delays processing parcels, and you can review the current delivery estimates for your order here.

If you purchase items that qualify for both Free Shipping and Paid Express Delivery, such as Plants, we will make every effort to send all your items together as Express Delivery, as long as they can fit in the same box or parcel. However, if the size or packing requirements necessitate it, we might need to split your delivery and send your Free Shipping items separately through Standard Delivery. Rest assured; you will receive email notifications for each shipment along with the individual tracking numbers.

If you prefer to have all your items sent via Express Delivery, kindly inform us by sending an email to hello@theplantboys.au or replying to your order confirmation email. Please note that additional shipping charges may apply to upgrade your entire order to Express Delivery.
