Where we deliver

@ Office World currently offers delivery to any South African residential or business address.
Our Standard delivery period is 2-3 working days. On occasion, due to delays outside of our control, deliveries may take longer. We will, however, make every effort to deliver on time and keep you updated throughout the process.

Receiving your delivery

Please arrange that you, or an authorised representative, is available to accept your order at the delivery address and that appropriate access is given. On delivery, we will require you (or your authorised representative) to sign and print your/their name on a duplicate copy of the delivery note to confirm receipt.

Any person other than yourself who receives the order at the delivery address is presumed to be authorised to accept delivery on your behalf. Should no-one be available at the delivery address specified by you at the time of delivery, the driver will return the order. The courier company will attempt to contact you to make new arrangements for re-delivery. Should no-one be available on the second attempt we reserve the right to charge an additional delivery fee.
We have outsourced all deliveries and so we cannot, to the extent permitted by law, be liable for any damage suffered or loss incurred by reason of any acts or omissions of the courier.

Our delivery service is not authorised to modify or tamper with your purchase or residence under any circumstances. They are instructed to leave the order in a safe area on your property, if available, or it will be returned to @ Office World. Please note that @ Office World will not be liable for any damages if you have instructed the delivery company to modify, tamper or force the purchase through your entrance.

We request that you inspect your goods prior to signing the delivery document and ensure all goods are received in good working order and free of any damage.

If you see any inconsistencies, please ensure the delivery document is endorsed accordingly and reject your delivery.

Product defects after the manufacturer’s warranty has expired
