Life doesn't always give you much warning. A birthday you forgot about. A client who just closed a deal. A settlement that landed this morning. A friend who needed something yesterday.
That's where Good Day People comes in.
Our delivery options are built for real life, including the moments that sneak up on you. Whether you need a premium gift hamper delivered tomorrow, today, or as fast as humanly possible, here's exactly how it works.
Your Delivery Options at a Glance
Same Day Delivery — Metro Sydney
For the genuinely urgent. If your recipient is in metro Sydney, select Local Delivery at checkout before the daily cutoff at 11am AEST and we'll arrange same-day delivery.
Available Monday to Friday, for any gift in our range. Not just Christmas, not just special occasions. Any hamper, any time you need it there today.
Premium Express — Next Business Day
Our fastest tracked shipping option for orders being delivered across NSW, ACT, VIC, SA, and QLD. Place your order before 12pm AEST and your hamper will arrive the next business day to eligible addresses in these states.
Please note that Premium Express is not currently available to WA, TAS, or NT. If you're sending to these states, Express Shipping is your best option.
Express Shipping — Fast, Australia-Wide
Available to every state and territory across the country. Express shipping is the go-to for time-sensitive orders that need to move quickly but fall outside the Premium Express coverage zone, or for orders placed after the Premium Express cutoff. Delivery times vary by location but are faster than standard.
Standard Shipping — Australia-Wide
Available to all Australian addresses, including PO boxes and Australia Post lockers. Standard delivery typically takes between one and five business days depending on your location. The right choice when you're not in a rush but still want a tracked, reliable service.
A Few Things Worth Knowing
Order before 12pm AEST to ensure same-day dispatch for express and premium express orders.
We don't dispatch on public holidays. If your order falls around a public holiday, factor that into your timeline.
Delivery times are estimates. We work with Australia's most trusted couriers and share tracking information the moment your order leaves our warehouse. But we can't guarantee specific delivery dates or times, as final delivery is in the hands of the courier.
If something goes wrong with the address, contact us as soon as possible. We can make amendments, but there may be a cost involved. Changes cannot be made once an order is in transit. Unsuccessful deliveries that are returned will incur a redelivery fee.
All orders are tracked. You'll receive tracking details via email once your hamper is dispatched, so you always know where it is.
For Orders from Overseas
You don't need to be in Australia to send a Good Day People hamper. Customers based anywhere in the world can order through our website using the same process as domestic customers. We accept Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Afterpay, and American Express.
We deliver to all Australian addresses and to New Zealand. We do not currently deliver to other international destinations. All hampers are packed and dispatched from our Sydney warehouse.

Step 5: Confirm and track
Complete your order and we'll send you a confirmation email followed by tracking information once your hamper is dispatched.
Why Delivery Matters as Much as the Gift
A gift that arrives late isn't really a gift. It's an apology.
Good Day People takes delivery seriously because it's part of the experience. Your hamper is packed carefully in our iconic branded canisters, secured in a recycled mailer box, and sent with tracking so nothing gets lost along the way. The unboxing experience starts the moment the parcel arrives at the door, and we make sure it's worth the wait.
