Shipping policy

At NEON, we prioritize getting your packaging to you as fast as possible. All orders are dispatched from our Auckland-based distribution center within 1–2 business days. Once your order has been processed and shipped, you will receive an email and an SMS containing your tracking information. 

No Click & Collect / Pick-up Service:  Please note that NEON eCommerce Packaging operates as a delivery-only service in New Zealand. To maintain our fast dispatch times, our Auckland facility is not open to the public for order collections or browse-in visits. 

Important Notes for Custom Orders: 

  • Combined Shipping: If your order contains both in-stock items and custom-branded products, they will be shipped together once the custom items are ready. 
  • Urgent In-Stock Items: If you require your in-stock items before your custom items, please place two separate orders
  • Split Shipments: Alternatively, you can email us at info@neonpackaging.co.nz to request a split shipment (note: additional shipping fees will apply). 

 

LOCAL DELIVERY: 

NEON eCommerce Packaging ships to most locations within New Zealand. If the local delivery option does not show up during checkout, your order is not eligible for local delivery.  

 

SHIPPING RATES & ESTIMATES   

To see the estimated cost of shipping to your location, please view your cart and enter your details in the ‘Estimate Shipping’ section of the page. These rates are based on the size and weight of your order. Please note that all boxes are shipped flat-packed, and large bulk orders are shipped out on pallets. 

These rates are indicative only and may change at checkout. 

Please note that due to high demand and driver shortages, many couriers have applied a Residential Delivery Surcharge for bulky goods. This surcharge applies to heavy items over 25kg and packages over 1m and impacts a large range of NEON eCommerce Packaging goods. 

We recommend getting large packages and shipments sent to a commercial address to avoid this surcharge. Commercial addresses include business parks, shopping centres, office buildings, shops, and any location otherwise zoned for business purposes. 

Businesses operating from a residential address in a work from home capacity are not zoned as businesses and may still incur the residential delivery surcharge. 

These charges are implemented by the courier service. NEON has provided courier options so you can choose the carrier that works best for you. 

 

ALTERNATIVE SHIPPING OPTIONS 

If you have a preferred courier that is not available in our shipping options, we are happy to work with them. To arrange a pickup with your preferred carrier, please contact us prior to placing your order. An electronic consignment note from your preferred carrier is required for our team to dispatch your order. 

 

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: 

Our website does not currently support international shipping. If you need your order to be shipped overseas, we are able to arrange this with you on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us if you require international shipping  

 

AUTHORITY TO LEAVE: 

By placing an order on our website, you give our delivery partners authority to leave your order in a safe place on your property if the address is unattended. If you have specific delivery requirements or instructions, please leave a note on your order or contact us with your order number and we can help you.
