How long will delivery be for my order?
We ship all orders on NZ Post (formerly known as Courier Post) and delivery is normally overnight throughout metro New Zealand and an extra one to two days for rural delivery (in most cases).
All orders are sent "Signature Required" as required for age-restricted goods (tobacco).
If you have an ATL (authority to leave) in place and your parcel is stolen, we cannot accept any responsibility for its non-delivery and you will need to deal directly with NZ Post as you have the ATL in place, not us.
Do you ship during the holidays?
YES, the team at CANTEROS.nz ship every day of the year excluding Public Holidays; if the courier driver is working, so are we
Please note as we are based in Christchurch, we observe Canterbury Anniversary weekend.
Is Signature Required for my order?
YES, as we ship primarily age-restricted goods (tobacco) we must require a signature (adult) signing for the goods.
My order is wrong or damaged, what can I do?
If we have made a mistake with your order or your order has been damaged during transit, please email sales@canteros.nz as soon as possible to let us know.
Do you provide tracking information?
YES, as we use NZ Post you will automatically be emailed tracking info once your order has been dispatched.
Can you ship to my PO Box?
YES, as we use NZ Post they can easily deliver your order directly to your PO Box; you don't need to do anything but ensure your address details are correct.
Do you ship overseas?
No, we only sell within New Zealand and only deliver within New Zealand.
Can you ship SAME-DAY within New Zealand?
Yes, we do offer this service as follows;
- Minimum spend NZ$1,000 excluding door to door charge
- Order must be placed and paid for by 10am
- Door to Door service by PACE is $250 to metro-areas within New Zealand
Please Note: If you order/pay after 10am there is no guarantee it will arrive that day; but will be on a PACE service door to door and will arrive as fast as possible.
If you live outside of a metro-area the price will be dependent on the price given to us by PACE on the day for your desired delivery location.
All of our stock ships from our Christchurch-based Distribution Centre; Cigars, Pipe tobacco, Smoking accessories and Humidors delivered overnight* throughout New Zealand.
We have the largest range of cigars and pipe-tobacco's available in New Zealand, for you.
We pride ourselves on fast delivery of the finest premium cigars available, no need to wait 4-weeks for an International delivery of your favourite sticks and that big excise-duty bill.
All our cigars are perfectly stored in our walk-in humidor, ensuring you always get the best, freshest and quickest delivery possible.
TIP: If you want your order for the weekend - the sooner you order, the better chance of delivery - waiting for Friday morning and trying Saturday delivery might seem like a great idea, but trust me; we don't like it when it doesn't go to plan as much as you don't like it either...
