WA Same Day Delivery Frequently Asked Questions

So what’s changing?

From February 1th 2022 Same Day Deliveries in WA will require by law written instructions by the licensee to the delivery person detailing the adult who has been specified or nominated to receive the delivery.

We will only deliver alcohol to the adult in the written instructions received and verify the recipient’s age is over 18 years of age.

This means that if you are placing a Same Day Delivery with us then we ask that you read the options in the checkout online carefully as they have changed.
