You can find the delivery status in your Climbing Anchors account or via the courier tracking page, which is linked to you in the “Order # has shipped” dispatch email.
If your order has been delivered to your address but you are unable to find it, check the surrounding areas if the driver has placed it in a safe place, not visible from the street.
If you find the courier has left an attempted delivery note redirecting you to a pick-up location, which sometimes happens if the driver deems it unsafe to leave the parcel unattended at the nominated delivery address. To pick up your parcel, bring the card left by the driver and your photo ID (i.e. drivers licence). If you didn’t receive a card, you can show a tracking number to pick up your parcel.
Get in touch and we will lodge an investigation with the courier for you.
Don’t worry, the other package is coming soon!
A team member would contact you if there are changes in your order, for example if an item has run out of stock then we will get in touch to explore some options. Be sure to check your junk mail for any emails from us.
Sometimes, we will split an order due to the stock being available in different store locations. In this case, we will divide your order into smaller packages and ship them from the different locations, it’ll help you get your items faster.

For the majority of parcel deliveries, we use packaging that is biodegradable, compostable, or can be recycled. We intentionally reuse a large portion of the packaging that we receive from our suppliers, including single use plastics (i.e. bubble wrap and boxes) simply to get more uses out of them.
Delicate and fragile items are placed in either bubble wrap or a paper alternative. We will make sure that it’s all adequately packaged from any damage created in the delivery process. If you have any concerns, contact our customer service team.
Our orders will also arrive with some stickers, locally made candy, and product info printed on recycled paper stock. If you want extra candy or stickers, better ask nicely~
Unfortunately, we do not ship items internationally. We are an Australian retailer and occasionally we may ship items to New Zealand. Please get in touch with our Customer Service team for more information about shipping products to New Zealand.
When should I use Click & Collect?
Click & Collect is used when purchasing non-returnable safety equipment where you're unsure about the comfort or the fit (e.g. helmets and harnesses). Once you place an order online, we can send a product to your closest store or hold it aside for you until you can come try it on. When you try on safety equipment in store, you'll still be able to swap for a different size if it doesn't fit.
How do I know when my order is ready for pick up?
The product availability by store on the product page beneath the price will give you a general idea of the wait time. If the product is available at your closest store, you will receive a pick up email notification within 1 - 2 business days of the order.
Not all items are held in stores. If the product is available online but not at your closest store, placing an order will notify us to ship it from our warehouse to the store which can take 3 - 5 business days.
To pick up your order, please show us a photo id or an invoice for the order.
Yes, you may have someone else pick up your order for you. Please send them a copy of the invoice to show us upon collection.
It is highly recommended that you come in store to try on any safety equipment that requires sizing (i.e. harnesses and helmets). You will be unable to return safety items if your friend collects them and they are the wrong size, even if the items are unused.
Due to the critical nature of safety equipment, we cannot accept returns or exchanges on any item labelled safety equipment. Please double check that you’ve chosen the correct equipment before finalising your purchase. If you are ever unsure, our customer service team can provide recommendations or advice on climbing equipment catered to your specific needs.
Please understand that this policy is strictly to ensure that all our customers are guaranteed that their equipment is in a new, unused, and safe condition. We do not resell safety equipment and therefore do not offer returns / exchanges. What is listed under safety equipment?
Clearance items are also excluded from returns. A clearance item, not subject to safety exclusions, may be eligible for exchange in size if it is available.
For more information, please refer to our Returns Policy.
You will need to check if your item meets our rules of return outlined in our Returns Policy.
For climbing shoes, we offer one free return in case the size isn’t right the first time around. Every online shoe purchase will come with a return slip with the instructions on how to return via Australia Post. Please ensure that you place the shoe box inside another box or satchel for the return shipping.
If you are attempting to return an item that isn’t covered by our free shoe return, please contact our customer service team.
Depending on where you are sending your return from, the entire return process may take up to 20 business days. Once we have received and processed your return, you will receive a confirmation email from us letting you know it’s been completed.
You can bring your item to any of our physical stores for an exchange, subject to meeting our rules of return outlined in our Returns Policy.
Note: online purchases cannot be refunded in store, please contact our customer service team in regards to refunds.
Please note that we do not stock all items available online in our stores. If you wish to exchange sizes or try on an item, please check for store availability on our website or contact our customer service team to ensure that product can be shipped to your chosen store beforehand.
A customer service team member will facilitate the refund process for you. Refunds are processed back into the same payment method you used to pay (i.e. same credit card, account credit, etc.). Once the refund has been processed, we will send you an email confirming the refund.
Note: online purchases cannot be refunded in store, please contact our customer service team in regards to refunds.
If you have looked everywhere in your package and there is no shoe card to be seen, you can access your first free shoe return here: New link TBA.
Please note: we only offer a one free shoe return on eligible shoes. A free shoe return is not eligible for clearance shoes or on your second shoe return. We’re happy to help if you need to return a shoe a second time - have a chat with our customer service team about sizes, recommendations and the return process.
Due to the critical nature of safety equipment, we cannot accept returns or exchanges on any item labelled safety equipment. Please understand that this policy is strictly to ensure that all our customers are guaranteed that their equipment is in a new, unused, and safe condition. If the item has yet to leave our premises, you can exchange or cancel your order by contacting our customer service team.
What is listed under safety equipment?
All items we stock are backed by manufacturer warranties.
Please note: climbing equipment warranties for textile items, including ropes, shoes and harnesses, will take wear and usage into account when assessing it’s eligibility for repair or replacement. Warranties do not cover misuse of products.
For more information, please refer to our Returns Policy.
All of the climbing equipment we sell goes through testing and certification processes before they are sold. Still, it’s possible an item could potentially be defective or mislabelled. If you’re ever unsure about whether an item is defective, please don’t hesitate to contact us or lodge a dispute in our ‘Resolution Centre’.
Similarly, we will make an announcement or contact you directly if we are notified about a recall on a defective item.
If an item you’ve purchased is defective immediately or has developed a fault, you can lodge a dispute / warranty claim in the ‘Resolution Centre’ on our website.
Lodging a dispute is the quickest way to help us assess whether the issue is covered by Manufacturer's Warranty, and its eligibility for repair or replacement.

If you’ve lost or misplaced your gift voucher, it’s not a problem. Please contact our customer service team for assistance.
How do I use a voucher?
You can redeem your voucher or gift card on the Checkout page under “Voucher”. Click “Redeem voucher” and enter the voucher code and secret code.

Make sure you are applying the voucher code and secret key in the Checkout page under “Voucher”. It will not work if you apply it in “Discount”.
Please note: the voucher code and secret key is case sensitive. Input the secret key exactly as shown. We are aware there is a problem with upper & lower case “L”s and “I”s looking the same. Unfortunately, there is no easy way but to play around with the letters until the voucher is accepted by the system. If you’re lucky enough to get “IIlI”, let us know and we’ll have a laugh together.
If you're still having trouble applying the voucher, please contact our customer service team.
Climbing Anchors Gift Vouchers do not expire and do not need to be used all at once. If you have forgotten to use the gift voucher, you can always hold onto it for next time.

Beneath “Subtotal” there is a text box to enter your discount code or promo code, then hit “Apply discount”.
On the Checkout Page
The discount or promo code is entered where it says “Discount”. Please note: “Voucher” is for entering Gift Vouchers.
