FAQ

Deliveries

We don't do same day deliveries, as we buy fresh flowers everyday morning as per orders received from earlier day.

What time will my order arrive?

Flowers are delivered between 9am and 5pm to business addresses and between 9am and 6pmto residential addresses. Couriers pick up at 11am and 2pm, so the sooner you have your order in, the sooner it is likely to reach its destination! We cannot guarantee specific delivery times.

How can I ensure my order is successfully delivered?

While doing flower delivery in Melbourne, please provide as much as relevant information as possible to ensure prompt delivery. Flat numbers, business name if applicable, ward/room no. for hospital deliveries etc. are all very useful for our couriers. There is a 'special delivery instructions' field on checkout that you can use for any extra delivery information that you think may be relevant, such as: 'main entrance is at back door, watch out for the dog!, please call xxx if any problems'.

 My delivery suburb isn't listed, what can i do?

If your suburb is not listed we may still offer delivery to that area, please contact us for further information.

 I've received some flowers, but I don't know who they’re from?

We are unable to disclose the sender’s information (due to privacy laws) unless the sender allows us to.

Do you deliver on Sundays?

Sorry, we currently deliver Monday through Saturday with the only exception being Mother’s Day (2nd Sunday in May).

Can you guarantee delivery on a specific date?

Yes, we will deliver your order on your specified date, which you can choose during checkout, providing there are no delivery problems such as an incorrect address or there is no-one available to accept delivery and there is nowhere safe to leave the delivery. Melbourne Fresh Flowers is an

 What happens if the recipient isn't in when you deliver?

If there is a safe place (sensible discretion will be used) to leave the delivery the courier will do so and will also leave a calling card in the recipients letter box. If there is no safe place we will attempt to contact you or the recipient (if you have left us instructions to do so) to receive further instructions. Should a re-delivery or re-direction be necessary we will need to charge a re-delivery fee equal to the standard delivery charge for the suburb of re-delivery?

Can you deliver to Businesses or Hospitals?

Absolutely! but to ensure prompt delivery please provide as much information as possible including anything you may think is relevant, such as the business name or ward/room no. etc.

What if I have to choose wrong product and now want to change it?

You need to inform us ASAP and pay for difference between old and new product. There is option of make payment in “Buy now” for your payment. Unfortunately we cannot refund if you choose product with less price than original.
