The 6 Gift Hack

We completely understand the excitement of receiving a special package to your door 😍

Generally, we recommend* allowing between 3 and 10 business days for your gorgeous items to be created, packaged and posted.

It may be helpful to know that many items in our range will be made and on their way to within 4 days - but allowing this longer time frame during the busy season is recommended.

If you have any questions, concerns or requests regarding the above info, please email us at hello@arloandco.com.au - we'll always do our very best to help.

Please note we will NOT be going on sale before the end of 2025.

If you're waiting for a Black Friday Sale, please don't 🫶🏻

We are a personalised gift business focused on purposeful, made-to-order gifts, and will spend November & December working hard to hand make thousands of personalised gifts in time for Christmas.

It's important to us to be transparent about this, and we thank you for shopping meaningfully with us, this season.

We ship worldwide* 🌎 and offer international rates across all our products (*calculated at the checkout)

Locally, use the Australia Post service for all our parcels, and offer:
1. Regular (standard) flat rate postage
2. Express Post (Australia wide)

Postage travel times will depend on where you're located, and which postage you opted for during check out. It's helpful to know we're shipping your order from our studio in Melbourne, Au.

📮 Express Post is always our recommendation if you want your parcel to travel to you as quickly as possible, with Aus Post, once it leaves our care. This service is usually 1-2 business days from the date of postage, but can vary depending on your location.

When your parcel is ready to be collected by the postie, you'll receive a Shipping Confirmation email from us 💌 (with your tracking details) so you can easily keep an eye on it journey, from us to you.

*Note: At this time, sadly we are unable to send to the USA. We hope this changes in the future.

Our studio is located in Chirnside Park, in the Eastern suburbs of Melbourne, so if you're not too far away, you're more than welcome to pop in to pick up your order when it's ready.

Just make sure you call or email us once you place the order to let us know ... and we'll make a note of it, and give you a call when your parcel is ready to collect. Easy as. 🙌🏻

P.S. After you've popped in to pick up your order, any postage charges you paid when placing the order will be refunded back to the method of payment.* This will be finalised within a couple of days of pick up :)

*Any orders processed using Afterpay will receive a discount code to the value of the postage costs paid. All other orders will receive a full refund of postage charges.

1. If you'd like us to make your order as quickly as possible, because you need it by a certain date, please contact us so we can help 👌🏼
We'll always do or best to speed things up for you, on our end ... but we do need you to let us know! ☺️

While we take great care in the packing and shipping of your parcel, for extra peace of mind we offer a Parcel Protection service to protect your parcel if it is lost or damaged in transit.

*Parcel Protection is an optional addition, added to your cart at the time of purchase.

When you add our Parcel Protection service to your order, we'll take care of the retrieval or replacement of your missing or damaged parcel.

What does Parcel Protection cover?

Parcels lost in transit
If your parcel is not delivered within the normal time frames specified by Australia Post, please contact our customer service team and we will open an investigation on your behalf. Once your parcel is deemed missing by Australia Post (this can take up to 7 business days) we will replace any items (or credit you the cost of the items, if unavailable)

Please note we DO NOT offer refunds. This Parcel Protection policy offers a replacement of items and a credit ONLY. If you no longer wish to get replacement items you can opt for a full credit. 

Parcel delivered to incorrect address
If your parcel tracking says it has been delivered to the incorrect address and we are unable to retrieve the parcel, we will deem this as a "missing parcel" and you will be covered by this policy. We will replace any items that are still available, and credit you for any unavailable items.  

Please note we DO NOT offer refunds. This Parcel Protection policy offers a replacement of items and a credit ONLY. If you no longer wish to get replacement items you can opt for a full credit. 

Parcel damaged in transit

Should your parcel arrive and be damaged in any way by Australia Post we will replace the items if available. Should we not have the item available we will credit or refund you for the item. Please contact our customer service team as soon as your parcel arrives (within 48 hours) to arrange to have your parcel sent back for assessment by our returns team. Once an assessment has been made, you will be contacted with a resolution.

What is not covered by Parcel Protection?

If the customer provides the incorrect address and the parcel is delivered we will not be responsible to recover this item or offer replacements.This includes payment of any damages as a result of non-receipt of your order.
