Tyres
Tyres are carefully packaged to prevent damage during transit. Large tyre orders may be shipped in multiple packages or via freight services depending on quantity and destination.
Scrap Materials
Due to their weight and size, scrap materials may require palletized or freight shipping. Delivery schedules for scrap products may vary depending on availability and logistics.
Customers may be required to provide suitable unloading equipment or arrange site access for large freight deliveries.
Coffee & Honey
Coffee and honey products are securely packaged to maintain product quality during shipping. Food items are shipped with care to help preserve freshness throughout transit.
Tracking Your Order
Where tracking is available, you will receive a tracking number via email once your order has been dispatched. Tracking updates are provided by the shipping carrier and may take up to 24 hours to become active.
Delivery Delays
While we strive to deliver orders on time, delays may occur due to:
- Severe weather
- Customs inspections
- High shipping volumes
- Carrier disruptions
- Remote delivery locations
- Events beyond our reasonable control
QST International Limited is not liable for delays caused by third-party shipping providers.
