Please note that this delivery schedule is just a guideline based on our experience of sending thousands of gift boxes across the country. We do not have any control over external factors from couriers causing delays, e.g. during peak times or weather events disrupting NZ Post's courier network.

Tips to increase the likelihood of successful delivery:

  • The earlier you order the better. Please make sure you leave a note during checkout mentioning the desired delivery date.
  • You will receive an email with tracking details informing you when a parcel is out for delivery. Give the recipient a heads-up that something is coming their way.
  • Gifts with alcohol have an R18 sticker and must be signed for by a person over 18.
  • Consider sending the parcel to the recipient's workplace if they're not working from home.

We will try our best to help you get your parcel delivered on time. If you have any questions, please get in touch.

Got a hamper for my mother for her birthday and she loved it. The idea of supporting small businesses local to where she lives as well as charity is a great idea and a win for everyone - 21/09/2023

I was looking for a gift box that was something more than a generic collection of goods (nothing wrong with those, but there is a time and a place for everything, you know). After quite a bit of search, I found We Love Local and what an amazing discovery that was! My friend was extremely happy with the packaging, the box, the content, the care and attention to detail that they put into making this birthday gift happen. Only one downside, (to no fault of We Love Local!), was the delivery process - despite the multiple detailed notes that were left on the parcel, none of the delivery instructions was followed. The recipient got it, eventually, which is what matters. I would 10/10 recommend to order from We Love Local :) - 20/09/2023
