Delivery by NZ Post Ltd
At Eat we partner with NZ Post Ltd to deliver your meals in good time and condition. As an essential service provider of meals we are flagged as a priority customer with NZ Post Ltd.
Our fresh meals are delivered nation-wide by priority courier service in refrigerated boxes. For your protection no signature is required. Please note: Courier Driver will not call on arrival of delivery.
Current courier demand and delivery.
The demand for courier services has increased across the country. However as with lots of industries sickness and staff shortages and major weather events have caused NZ Post Ltd to remove their guarantee of next day delivery across the network. This means that should you parcel not reach you within 30hrs (our safe chill timeframe) of being scanned leaving our premises the parcel is flagged as expired, delivery is cancelled and the box is destroyed. In this event EAT will refund or resend your product at our own cost. We receive no compensation from courier post for expired delivery.
As courier post do not guarantee next day delivery, we are unable to either. If you rely on our meals it is recommended you have two days meals in the freezer, on hand incase we are required to resend due to courier delay or disruption.
Nationwide deliveries: Tuesday through to Friday. Deliveries are from 6am to 6:00pm as per your instructed day. An absolute minimum of 24 hour WORKING days notice is required for delivery to Metropolitan areas and main towns.
South Island: Delivery to the South Island is Air freighted - this is why the delivery is almost double that of North Island courier fee.
If your delivery has not arrived by 2pm. Please contact the lovely ladies in the office on 0800 328 333 option 3, so they can start a trace on the parcel to ensure delivery.
Local deliveries: Wellington & Hutt Valley personal delivery: Tuesday through to Friday orders must be in by 11am day prior in order to select this rate. Orders which miss cut off can be dispatched by NZ Post Ltd costing an additional $6.00
Rural locations cannot be serviced due to the guaranteed delivery time offered by the courier company being too long to sustain fresh food in its chilled environment.
