When will my order be dispatched?
Your order will be dispatched between 1 and 3 business days, depending on stock availability. Usually, we will dispatch your order the following day, but during busy periods it can take an extra day. Once your order has been lodged for dispatch you will receive a Dispatch Notification with tracking details. Please check your spam folder if you haven't received it.
Why does someone need to be home for delivery?
Authority to Leave is not available for large & bulky items (i.e., Cubby House cartons). It is recommended to check the number of cartons received and if any damage is present on acceptance.
What if no one is home to accept?
The freight company will not organise to deliver if no one will be home to accept. We highly recommend placing your best contact number during the order process, in case the driver needs to notify & schedule in a delivery day.
Note: If a delivery is organised and no one is home to accept, then the freight will be taken back to the depot. This will result in a re-delivery and extra charges will be applicable.
Will I receive a phone call before delivery?
Northline will contact the receiver prior to delivery. They will schedule the delivery and confirm someone will be present on the delivery day.
My delivery is late. What can I do?
Contact Northline on 1300 722 534 and quote your consignment number. The friendly staff will be able to look in to your delivery.
Hide & Seek Kids have limited information with your delivery and can only provide you information that is visible on the tracking website.
I have received less cartons or items than I should have.
In the rare instance that short deliveries occur, we recommend checking all of the cartons on the shipping docket to ensure that they match up with the cartons you’re receiving.
