Shipping and Delivery - Next72Hours New Zealand Survival Kits, Grab Bags and Emergency Food Supplies


What Services do you use for delivery and what can we expect when we order from Next72Hours.

 

POST HASTE COURIERS  

 

 

Our primary service for shipping your goods is Post Haste Couriers., To date their service, along with their subsidiary of Pass the Parcel has been excellent and we have not had a parcel go missing ever. We normally use their two day courier service for inter island and next day for same island deliveries, or course this can fluctuate due to any adverse weather conditions etc. 

 

You can find a link to their track and trace page here, and see where your parcel is in its journey.  Their terms and conditions of service can be found at this link. It helps if we have the correct address details to begin with also, so if you are not 100% sure, then head on over to their address checker here and put your details in. If there are any delays in their service, or you want to know how they are progressing, then you can check for any delays here.

DELIVERY TIMES | Pass The Parcel

 

As per the Pass the Parcel Website these are the estimated delivery targets,

Local, which is designed for when you have an item to be sent to someone in the same town or city as yourself and offers:

  • Overnight delivery, where we aim to have the item delivered before 5pm the next working day
  • A door to door service provided that the sender's address qualifies for a courier pick-up

This is for deliveries that are in the same mainland island as you (for example Christchurch to Nelson). Our service standard for these deliveries is:

  • Overnight delivery, with our target delivery time being before 5pm the next working day

Just a couple of things to note about our service standards:

 

  • If your item is going to a rural area, delivery may take an additional 24 hours. We are also unable to get a signature for rural deliveries.
  • We do our best to deliver your parcels when we say we will; but, sometimes things happen which mean we may take an extra day or so to deliver. As such, please note that we do not guarantee delivery within the above service standards. We sure do our best though.

 

 RETURNS

When a product isn’t up to scratch, the Consumer Guarantees Act gives you powerful after-sales rights.

The Act says products must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose and match their description.

If a product has a minor fault, the retailer can choose to repair the item, replace it, or refund your money.

But if the fault is major, it’s your choice whether you opt for a replacement or refund. A major fault means a reasonable consumer wouldn't have bought the product if they'd known about the problem.

We abide by the Consumer Guarantees Act, and if you find yourself having a problem with any of our products, please contact us via Email and let us know. We strive to provide top quality products and stand out customer service at all times.

WHO TO TURN TO FOR HELP??

When it comes to personal safety , in particular with violence towards women in society, the statistics are horribly concerning.

In a recent blog post, the Ministry for Women in New Zealand (women.govt.nz) talk about a 2018 Report carried out by the World Health Organization, which notes that; The World Health Organisationconducted a 2018 analysis of prevalence datafrom 2000-2018 across 161 countries and areas and found that worldwide nearly one in three, or 30%, of women have been subjected to physical and/or sexual violence by an intimate partner or non-partner sexual violence, or both.'

These numbers are very concerning, and more recent reports show that these numbers are steadily increasing. With regards to New Zealand statistics, the Human Rights Commission published a report intoWorkplace Bullying and Harassment in Aotearoa New Zealand (2022)which noted that 38% women have experienced sexual harassment in the past five years, as well as 23% of Men.

The Human Rights Commission have published a new report, Experiences of Workplace Bullying and Harassment in Aotearoa New Zealand (2022), which found that 38% of women have experienced sexual harassment in the past five years compared to 23% of men. It also goes on to note that young women, bisexual workers, and disabled workers are especially likely to experience sexual harassment. One just has to read the news on a daily basis to see that these statistics stack up and are a sadly accurate state of society as it stands today.

If your life or the life of someone else you know is in imminent danger then Call 111 and ask to speak to the Police. Otherwise, if you are looking for someone to talk to about your situation, or on behalf of someone else, the following websites are a great place to start.
