NEW AUSTRALIA POST UPDATE PRICES 0CT 2018

Oct 2018 Australia Post has implemented extensive changes to their parcel delivery services. It particularly affects small businesses like Treetops.  Here is a summary of what will effect you and how to get the most out of your postage costs.

  • DOMESTIC PARCELS – There has a been a minimal price increase
  • INTERNATIONAL PARCELS UNDER 1KG:
    Intl Economy (Air NO Tracking, NO Recourse for lost parcels) is now cheaper than ever,10+ business days delivery. We do NOT recommend using this service for parcels valued over A$100!
    Intl Standard (Air with Tracking) This is a NEW service which allows tracking and medium speed delivery 3-10 business days. Around A$7.00 more than Economy.
    Intl Express (Express Air with Tracking and Signature*) A very expensive service to use for such a small parcel. Fastest and most secure delivery service 2-4 business days. (*not available in all countries)
  • INTERNATIONAL PARCELS OVER 1KG – 2KG:
    Intl Standard (Air with Tracking) This is a new service which allows tracking and medium speed delivery 3-10 business days.
    Intl Express (Express Air and Tracking and Signature*) Fastest and most secure delivery service 2-4 business days. Over 1.5kg this service generally only costs around A$5.00 more than the Intl Standard service, in our opinion it is the best to use for parcels over 1.5kgs.  (*not available in all countries)
  • INTERNATIONAL PARCELS OVER 2KG:
    Intl Express – (Express Air and Tracking and Signature*) Fastest and most secure delivery service 2-4 business days. Only cost approximately A$5.00 more than the Intl Standard rate and is safer and faster.
