are organised on a 48 hours turn around. Longer hire periods can
also be arranged and will incur an additional cost.

to inform Bijou if an order does not arrive. Once we learn an
order has not arrived by the due date, we will lodge enquiries
with Australia Post to ensure delivery occurs as soon as possible.

from late delivery.
Please note that if an item has been lost in transit, we will
not send a replacement item immediately. Replacement items will
be sent according to our discretion.

to re-send the order to the correct address at our expense.
