For custom quotes or specific delivery inquiries, contact us via email at [email protected] or call us at 02 9621 1477.
What are Tail-Gate Home Deliveries?
Tail-gate home deliveries are for larger or heavier items delivered by a truck with a tail-gate. This includes items like bathtubs, vanities, large mirrors (over 1200mm), mirror cabinets, and toilets.
Where do we deliver?
Deliveries to non-metro or regional areas Australia-wide are custom quoted. This is not a standard option and always requires a custom quote.
Note:
This service does not apply to Sydney, Newcastle, Wollongong, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, and Canberra. Deliveries in these areas are made via private drivers who will call 30-60 minutes prior and text the morning of or the day before delivery.
How does it work?
- Items are delivered curbside, as the trucks are large.
- Deliveries are generally Authority to Leave (ATL). If no one is home, a photo of the product is taken.
- Keep track of your delivery using the tracking information provided to ensure safe delivery.
How to get a quote?
Contact us via email at [email protected] or call us at 02 9621 1477 to receive a custom quote for tail-gate home deliveries.
Please note:
Some exclusions apply such as stone bathtubs.
What is a Depot?
A depot is a temporary warehouse where delivered goods are stored before being transported further. It is not a permanent storage facility; items remain there only until their next destination.
How does ATS use Depots?
ATS uses collection depots as central hubs for packages, providing a cost-effective shipping option for most non-metro areas and metro areas such as Perth, Hobart, Adelaide, and Darwin. This service is not available for metro areas like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Newcastle, Wollongong, and Canberra, where private drivers deliver directly to the site.
Items Transported to Depots: We use depots to transport larger, bulkier items on pallets, such as:
- Bathtubs
- Vanities
- Toilets
- Mirror cabinets
- Mirrors over 1000mm
- Large bulk orders
- Other bulky items
Important Information:
- Identification: For security purposes, identification and verification are required upon collection.
- Storage Duration: The depot will hold an order for up to 6 days, including the arrival day.
- Fees: If not collected within this period, fees will apply and must be paid before pickup.
- Liability: Customers bear any loss or damage after the 6-day period.
- Uncollected Goods: Refusing to pick up the order will be treated as a change of mind, and ATS cannot cancel the order. Uncollected goods will be returned to ATS with no refund provided.
For more information or assistance, contact us via email at [email protected] or call us at 02 9621 1477.
Oversized Items:
If you are in Perth, Hobart, Darwin, or regional remote areas, the default shipping option for large and fragile items will always be to a depot for collection. This includes items such as bathtubs, vanities, mirrors larger than 1200mm, mirror cabinets, toilets, and other large and bulky items.
Home Delivery:
Home delivery is available for Sydney, Newcastle, Wollongong, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Melbourne, Geelong, and Canberra, or if it is specifically mentioned as the shipping method during checkout. For Perth, Hobart, Darwin, or regional remote areas, if you require home delivery, please contact us for a custom quote.
Shipping Information:
When making a purchase online, shipping will be specified as either home delivery or depot pickup. You can check this information using the "Calculate Shipping" button on our website. Simply input your postcode, and it will calculate the shipping cost. If it says “home delivery” as the shipping method, it is going to your shipping address. If it says or mentions the word “depot,” it will be going to a depot.
Special Notes:
- For Perth, Hobart, and Darwin, deliveries will always go to a metro depot in the city. Regional depots need to be custom quoted by our staff.
- If standard “shipping” is shown and it is a large item, and you are in Perth, Hobart, Darwin, or regional remote areas, it will still go to a depot. We will send you an email with the depot details.
Confirmation: If the shipping type is not indicated, ATS will email you to confirm the shipping method before dispatch.
For any questions or assistance, please contact us via email at [email protected] or call us at 02 9621 1477.
Where is Local Delivery Available?
Local delivery is available only in Sydney and Melbourne, where our main distribution centers are located.
Benefits of Local Delivery:
- Bundled Items: Ideal when you bundle items together.
- Faster Shipping: Provides a quicker shipping option.
- Cost-Effective: Standard shipping charges accumulate with each item, but local delivery can be more economical for multiple items.

Freight-Related Damage:
- If you notice any freight-related damage to your goods upon arrival, please notify the delivery driver at the time of delivery.
- All goods need to be checked upon receipt. If you notice damage, it must be reported within 24 hours of receiving the delivery. Claims made after this period will not be entertained.
Reporting Damaged Goods:
- If your product has been damaged in transit, please email us at [email protected] within 24 hours. Include:
- Clear photos of the product issue and the box/packaging
- Your order details
- Your name and contact details
- Any other relevant information
- This will then be checked and assessed by our support team, as products are checked prior to dispatch for any damages or defects.
Damage Claims:
- Goods stored on building sites or moved around by trades are not covered after the 24-hour period, as ATS cannot determine when or how the damage occurred, and insurance will not cover this type of damage.
- It is crucial that your trades, such as plumbers and electricians, inspect goods before installation. Goods damaged during or after installation are not the responsibility of ATS or our suppliers.
Faulty Goods:
- Goods found to be faulty due to manufacturing defects are covered by product warranties. These claims are usually handled by the product supplier or manufacturer, who provides after-sales service support for goods properly installed by licensed trades, such as plumbers and electricians. Supplier details are typically found on the product page or their website. You can also email our team at [email protected] for assistance.
- If a good is found to not be faulty and a service call is made, a service fee will be applicable.
Insurance, Local Deliveries & Deliveries by Private Drivers:
- Our 24-hour delivery transit insurance does not cover customer warehouse pickups, local deliveries by ATS (NSW), or deliveries made by private drivers. These deliveries are opened and inspected upon receipt between the customer and the driver. Our team checks products prior to pick up or delivery to ensure there is no damage to the goods.
Claims Process:
- All claims need to be documented and made via email to [email protected]. Claims cannot be made via telephone.
Under our current policy, we do not offer exchanges or returns for products purchased in the incorrect size. This policy is in line with Australian Consumer Law, which does not require businesses to provide a refund or exchange if you simply change your mind or make a wrong selection.

If you need further assistance, feel free to contact us at [email protected] or call us at 02 9621 1477.
