Because Carpet is bulky and not very heavy, a cubic weight Allowance may have to be used. The following charges are reasonably accurate, other aspects may affect the final delivery cost. The weight of our Natural Floorcoverings range from approx. 2.00~7.00Kg per sq metre. Use this Pop-UP INSTANT FREIGHT calculatorPop-Up page. to work out the approximate weight and cost of any product for transportation.

Delivery:

Freight company allows a maximum of fifteen (15) minutes for delivery to be efficient, If someone is not there to take delivery at such time their will be a Waiting charge exceeding the fifteen minutes, this will be charged at approx. $15.00 per attempted delivery. If it is necessarily to redeliver, an additional charge of $25 will apply.

When a consignment requires the delivery driver to unload the freight by hand due to the unavailability of a forklift or staff assistance, an additional charge of $25 may apply.

*Insurance:

Unless previously declined, all goods described on freight notes are (*)automatically insured against risk of physical loss or damage to $1'000 and a premium of $10 is added to the freight charge. If insurance is required in excess of $1'000, simply allow 1% of the cost of the goods over $1'000 plus the initial $10.

To this day, we have never had any damage or loss of a shipment to a customer.

Cubic Allowance:

Because some freight is bulky and not very heavy, the "cubic Allowance" quoted, represents the number of kilograms per cubic metre on which charges will be calculate. The charge will be based on whichever is the greater of the actual weight of the consignment or the cubic measurement of the consignment multiplied by the cubic allowance (250 Kg's/m3).

As a general rule, a full roll of ribbed coir will be approx. 4.00mt x 80cm x 80cm, a full roll of ribbed sisal will be approx. 4.00mt x 50cm x 50cm. Eg: If the product is a single run of Coir carpet (10mt x 4mt = 40sq mt, it will weigh around 100Kg) and when rolled and wrapped for transport the 100Kg is calculated at being 0.65 cubic meter (4mt x .40 x .40 = 0.65m3), this means that you have to multiply 0.65 x 250KG to give you the cubic freight rate of 162.5Kg. If you want, test our calculator by entering 162.5Kg as the Consignment Weight and if going to Brisbane, the rate will be $0.30Kg and it will cost you $119.75 +GST.
