Shipping and Delivery

Shipping
Patagonia Chocolates aims to get your order to you as fast as possible. We only deliver domestically within New Zealand and use Post Haste couriers. Please note that deliveries cannot be made to a PO Box address.

Shipping charges are set at a flat rate fee of $8.00 for standard NZ delivery and $10.00 for rural NZ delivery.

Unfortunately, we are not currently sending items internationally due to significant delays on deliveries impacted by Covid-19 and difficulties experienced shipping perishable goods overseas.

Dispatch
Business days are classed as Monday-Friday and exclude statutory holidays. We endeavour to dispatch orders received within 1-2 business days. On occasion this may not always be possible for a variety of reasons therefore we will be in touch with you should the dispatch date be longer than three business days from your order date. If you are requiring an order urgently please call us on (+64) 03 441 2891.

Please note deliveries are taking slightly longer than usual at this current time due to couriers experiencing higher than normal parcel volumes throughout the country.

Tracking Your Order
We will send you an email once your order has been dispatched which will include the tracking number. This will give you full visibility of your order’s progress.

Multiple Item Orders
We endeavour to dispatch all items within an order at the same time. Occasionally, due to stock levels, we may dispatch one or more items from your order while awaiting further stock to fulfil the remainder of your order. You will be advised of this split order dispatch by email. You will not pay any additional charges for this beyond the original shipping cost calculated at the time of checkout. You will be provided with a tracking number for each package dispatched as a split order.
