Make sure all your address details are entered and formatted correctly to avoid any unnecessary delays in getting your order sent out to you.

Some handy tips to assist you:

• If your building has a name or you are sending the order to your work, be sure to use the Company / Building field to enter these details.
• Try to place your street number and street name all in the one field.  This should be labelled as 'Street Address' and only use the second line if it's really necessary.
• If you would like to have a separate delivery address, this is fine and can be completed during the checkout process by selecting a separate address to your billing address.
• Double check the New Zealand Post 'Address & Postcode Finder'. You can access this by clicking the 'Validate Address' button below:
