For Australia, We ship our prints via Australia Post & Parcel 2 Couriers. New Zealand and the rest of the world, we use Sendle. With the ongoing pandemic, we calculate the fastest route possible. Each package is registered with tracking to ensure it gets from us to you. For large scale custom frames and canvas work, we use DHL and Pack & Send couriers on Road Express Service.
Due to the pandemic and slow postage times, for our Melbourne clients until Christmas, we offer free Uncommon Florals local point to point delivery within 50km of Melbourne Metro. Our delivery service runs Friday with artwork dropped at your door.
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes, when you checkout you will see the shipping cost. We use Sendle for prints and DHL International for large scale items. Please take note of any international delays from Australia.

Information about unclaimed packages & delivery schedules
For items packed under 90cm, we use Australia Post and Parcel 2 Couriers. For large scale art over 90cm, we use DHL and Pack & Send Couriers. In the event that the item is a missed delivery, couriers will make three attempts to deliver to your address and you will be sent an email link to pick up the items if you're not available to take the delivery or; to schedule a delivery at your preference which is the receivers responsibility to arrange and manage.
If you miss all delivery times and do not contact the courier, couriers will reroute the item back to our parcel point in Victoria within 7-10 business days of the last missed delivery. If the parcel is undelivered, re-delivery is at your own cost and we can create a new booking and invoice to redeliver your item. We do not accept liability for incorrect shipping address or amendments to deliveries such as a change in delivery times, or to deliver to a new address whilst in transit - as rerouting a package will increase the shipping time and is outside of our delivery guarantee. We are only insured to deliver to the required destination on a single route and do not provide insurance coverage for rerouting packages.
Australia Post missed deliveries will be held at your local post office and in the event it is unclaimed after 14 days, will be sent back to our parcel point in Victoria as per Australia Post terms and conditions.
