Shipping & Delivery

Fused Fabrications offers shipping across Australia for select products. Shipping terms vary depending on the item type:

Bull Bars

We ship bull bars Australia-wide. Due to the size and freight handling requirements of bull bars, we only deliver to:

• A commercial address with a forklift on-site; or

• An approved freight depot (for customer pickup).

It is the customer’s responsibility to provide an accurate delivery address. If a delivery location is falsely declared as a commercial address and is later determined to be residential, inaccessible, or not equipped for unloading, any futile delivery charges, redelivery fees, or depot storage costs incurred will be passed on to the customer. These charges must be paid in full before redelivery or release of goods.
We reserve the right to cancel or delay any order if delivery conditions are not met.

Laser Cut Components

Shipping of laser cut components is handled case-by-case, depending on size, weight, and location. Some items may require pickup only from our workshop. Please contact us before ordering to confirm shipping availability.

General Shipping Terms

• All delivery timeframes are estimates only and are not guaranteed.

• Once goods leave our premises, they are the property and responsibility of the purchaser.

• All shipments are sent at the buyer’s risk.

• Fused Fabrications accepts no responsibility for damage, loss, or delays that occur during transit.

• We strongly recommend that customers arrange freight insurance if they require added protection during shipping.

Damage Notification Requirement

All goods must be inspected immediately upon delivery.
Any damage—whether suspected to be caused by freight or a manufacturing fault—must be reported to Fused Fabrications within 72 hours of receipt. Damage reported outside this timeframe will be classified as wear and tear and will not be eligible for warranty assessment.
This policy applies regardless of the suspected cause of damage. We are not liable for any claims made outside the 72-hour window, even if it is believed the damage occurred prior to dispatch.
