We aim to package your order within one business day.

Once dispatched, your item will typically arrive within 3-5 business days if you are located within New Zealand. For areas that are Out of Service or Rural please allow a further 2-4 days.

Please note that delivery times may vary depending on your location and any potential delays with the shipping carrier.

As soon as your order has been dispatched, we'll send your tracking information to the email address provided at checkout, so you can follow your delivery every step of the way.

We can’t guarantee that all items in your order will dispatch at the same time. It’s more likely that your items will dispatch separately.

Rest assured, we’ll get your entire order out as quickly as possible.

You’ll receive a dispatch confirmation email with a tracking link as each item leaves our warehouse.

If you need to change your shipping address, please e-mail us at support@myduckling.com.au as soon as possible.

Once your order has been processed or shipped, we may not be able to make changes.

If you need to change or cancel your order, please contact us at support@myduckling.com.au as soon as possible.

We’ll do our best to accommodate your request, but if your order has already been processed or dispatched, changes or cancellations may not be possible.

In such cases, you may need to follow our Returns and Refunds once you receive the item.

myduckling does not process direct exchanges.

Please return the item for a refund and place a new order for the desired item(s).

Returns are subject to our Returns Policy.

We accept returns within 30 days of purchase, provided the item is in its original condition and packaging.

All myduckling products come with a 2 Year Structural Warranty so you can shop with complete peace of mind.

myduckling will, at our discretion, repair or replace any product with a manufacturing or materials fault for the duration of 2 years from the purchase date.

For full details about the warranty, please visit our Warranty Page.

If your item arrives damaged, please contact us within 7 days of delivery by emailing support@myduckling.com.au and include clear photos of the damage.

Once we have reviewed your claim, we will arrange a replacement where applicable.

If your order’s tracking shows it’s stuck in a pending or 'pre-shipment' status, this may be due to a missed scan by the carrier.

If there has been no activity for 7 calendar days, please contact us.

If your tracking information shows that the parcel was delivered, but you haven't located it within 48 hours, please:

• Verify the shipping address you provided
• Check around the delivery location (e.g. outside a nearby flat)
• Look in your mailbox or mail storage area
• Ask if someone else in your household may have accepted the parcel on your behalf

Please note that we cannot refund or replace orders marked as 'delivered but lost,' as carriers (NZ Post, Aramex, Mainfreight, etc.) no longer consider these items lost.

Increased instances of fraud have led carriers to deny claims even with customer complaints.

myduckling must follow our carrier partners' policies and is not responsible for lost or stolen parcels.

A pre-order allows you to purchase an item before it becomes available. When you pre-order, you reserve the item in advance and will receive it once it is officially released or back in stock.

When you place a pre-order, we will charge you at the time of purchase.

Your item will be dispatched as soon as it has arrived at our warehouse and we will send you a confirmation email with an estimated dispatch date.

If you need to cancel a pre-order, please contact us as soon as possible.

Cancellation may be subject to our standard return policy. Once the item has been shipped, it will follow our regular return process.

If there are delays with your pre-ordered item, we will notify you with updated shipping information. We appreciate your patience and will ensure that your item is shipped as soon as possible.
