Delivery Options

Please note: Parcels are sent at your own risk. Our liability ends when the parcel is handed over to the courier and the tracking number is provided to the client. Deviant South will not be held liable for parcels lost, damaged or stolen in transit. We take extra care to protect fragile objects as far possible. It is the responsibility of the client to track the parcel and follow up with couriers. If you need assistance, please get in touch with us. 

 

Delivery F.A.Q.

Can I group my items to save on shipping?

Yes! We recommend this! If for some reason your grouped items do not fit into a courier satchel for example, we will be in touch with you and advise you the best possible alternative option based on your order size & delivery area.

 

Will I get a tracking number for the parcel?

Yes! A tracking number is provided with every delivery option mentioned below namely Fastway, Aramex, Paxi & Postnet.

 

May I use my own courier service?

Yes! You are welcome to send your own courier to collect the parcel. Please note that packaging charges of R25.00 may be incurred as we have to use our own materials to label & package the goods securely, especially fragile products. 

 

Do you offer a gift-wrapping service?

Yes! We have recently incorporated this service, though we only keep limited stock as we have to cater for a large variety of shapes and sizes of orders. Materials which we keep on hand are gift wrap & small boxes. An optional note can be added to the item.

 

Can you ship to another recipient – e.g., gift receiver?

Yes! If you choose the gift wrap option above, you can complete the recipient details in the Delivery Address section on checkout.

Please note: We will not include an invoice if you select the gift wrap option above, but we usually include an invoice with all orders that don’t select this option. If you do not select the gift wrap option and do not want to receive an invoice in the parcel, please advise us, by leaving a message on checkout.

 

Do you ship outside South Africa?

Yes! Please contact us for a quote.

Locate your nearest branch here: PAXI - The most affordable way to send, collect & return parcels at PEP

We have decided to incorporate this service as we have a lot of clients from rural areas, which some of the other delivery services do not cover. This is also a great service if you are unable to receive courier parcels at work, home or school. PEP has over 2,000 stores nationwide to choose from.

For parcels that are larger than a A3 satchel, we would recommend either Postnet or Fastway, however if none of those services are available for your area, only in that instance would we recommend this as an alternative option. We do not currently have A2 option setup on the website, but it can be arranged after the fact.

This service takes very long and is dependent on when their delivery trucks service their branches. In some of the rural areas, pick-ups and deliveries only take place on scheduled days e.g., one branch only received deliveries on Tuesdays and Thursdays which caused a delay in delivery.

Parcel Size: A3 Satchel (A2 on request)

Delivery Time: +/- 7-9 workdays
