Instructions for Contactless Drive & Collect (Victorian Stores Only)
Online Contactless Delivery Update:
- Australia Post and Star Track are experiencing delays throughout their delivery network due to ongoing restrictions and demand.
- Although most deliveries are still being delivered within a few days of the ETA date provided on tracking information, some orders are seeing longer delays. This is impacting customers in Victoria the most.
- Due to load balancing efforts, orders for Victoria may be routed via interstate processing centers. You may see tracking show that your order was picked up in Melbourne and then processed in Sydney even though you live in Victoria.
- For more, up to date information, please check the AusPost COVID information page here.
- Scorptec is continuing to operate and process orders for delivery, however processing times may be increased due to government restrictions.
- Now delivering from all stores

Behaviour:
Scorptec accepts zero tolerance for abusive behaviour in written, verbal, and face to face communication, any such behaviour will result in termination of communication and/or removal from a store.
We understand your frustration and concern and all of our new, existing, and temporary team members are working their best during difficult and unsure times - inflammatory behaviour towards them is unnecessary and unaccepted.
