🏪 Click & Collect (D'Aguilar QLD)
Our local collection service is available from our warehouse in D'Aguilar, QLD, and is usually ready within 24 hours.
- Await Notification: Once your order is safely prepared, you will receive an Order Ready for Pickup email.
- By Appointment Only: Because our warehouse operates strictly by appointment to ensure order readiness, please reply directly to your notification email or contact us to arrange a specific pickup day and time.

❌ Order Cancellations & Alterations
- Prior to Shipping: You may request to cancel or add items to an order only if it has not yet been packed or fulfilled. For change-of-mind cancellations, we issue store credit or exchange only; we do not offer cash refunds. If adding items pushes your package into a higher shipping weight tier, the balance must be settled before dispatch.
- Post-Shipping: Orders cannot be cancelled, stopped, or altered once they leave our facility. If you change your mind after delivery, you may return the unopened items at your own expense for store credit only, provided they arrive back in perfect, resalable condition. Original and return shipping fees are non-refundable.
🚫 Western Australia & Tasmania – Prohibited Items
To protect local ecosystems, certain products (such as seeds, grains, or organic materials) cannot be shipped to Western Australia or Tasmania due to strict state quarantine laws.
- How to Identify Restricted Items: These items are explicitly flagged directly on their respective product pages under the 📦 Shipping not available to TAS/WA accordion tab.
- What Happens If I Order a Prohibited Item? If your order contains a restricted item, we will email you to offer the choice to swap it for a different product. If we do not receive a response within 3 business days, we will automatically refund the restricted item to your original payment method and ship the remainder of your order.
- Import Responsibility: Buyers assume full responsibility for any quarantine fees or border fines. Pixie Paws Pets is not liable for items seized or destroyed by biosecurity authorities.
