Shipping Policy
Last updated: July 2026
At Luxton Engineering, we take pride in ensuring your order is packaged securely and shipped as efficiently as possible. Due to the varying size and weight of our products, shipping methods and delivery times may differ between orders.
Order Processing
Made-to-order or custom products may require additional manufacturing time. Where applicable, estimated lead times will be communicated after your order is placed.
Orders are processed during normal business days (Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays).
Shipping Methods
We use a range of trusted freight providers to deliver orders across Australia.
Depending on the size and weight of your order, shipping may be completed via:
- Standard parcel courier
- Express courier (where selected)
- Heavy freight services
- Pallet freight for oversized products
The shipping method will be selected based on the most suitable option for your order.
Shipping Costs
Shipping costs are calculated at checkout where available.
For oversized, bulky, or remote deliveries, additional freight charges may apply. If this occurs, we will contact you before dispatch to confirm the revised shipping cost.
Delivery Times
Estimated delivery times vary depending on your location and shipping method.
Tracking
Where available, tracking details will be provided once your order has been dispatched.
Customers are responsible for monitoring tracking information and ensuring someone is available to receive deliveries where required.
Authority to Leave
Some carriers may offer Authority to Leave (ATL) deliveries.
If ATL is selected, Luxton Engineering is not responsible for loss, theft, or damage occurring after the parcel has been delivered.
Pallet Freight
Large fabricated products may be shipped via pallet freight.
Customers should ensure:

- Someone is available to receive the delivery during business hours.
Additional charges may apply for:

- Circumstances beyond our reasonable control
Luxton Engineering is not liable for delays caused by third-party freight providers.
