Shipping & Delivery Policy

Effective Date: 8 August 2026

At Chesco Auto, we aim to make ordering automotive products online simple, convenient, and reliable. This Shipping & Delivery Policy explains how we process, dispatch, and deliver orders placed through www.chescoauto.co.za.

By placing an order with Chesco Auto, you acknowledge and agree to the terms outlined below.

1. Delivery Coverage

Chesco Auto delivers products nationwide across South Africa, subject to courier availability and delivery-area restrictions.

We may deliver to:

  • Residential addresses

  • Business addresses

  • Commercial premises

  • Other approved delivery locations

Certain remote or difficult-to-access areas may be subject to additional delivery charges, extended delivery times, or alternative collection arrangements.

2. Order Processing

Orders are processed during our normal business operating hours.

Once your order and payment have been successfully received and verified, we will begin preparing your order for dispatch.

Processing times may vary depending on:

  • Product availability

  • Order size

  • Payment verification

  • Supplier availability

  • Product-specific requirements

  • Weekends and public holidays

Orders containing products that are not immediately available may require additional processing time.

3. Estimated Delivery Times

Delivery timeframes depend on your location, product availability, and the courier service used.

As a general guide:

Delivery AreaEstimated Delivery Time
Major metropolitan areas2–5 business days
Other areas in South Africa3–7 business days
Remote areas5–10 business days or longer

These are estimated timeframes and are not guaranteed delivery dates.

Delivery may take longer during peak periods, public holidays, promotional campaigns, severe weather, courier disruptions, or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.

Delivery charges may vary depending on:

  • Delivery location

  • Package size and weight

  • Number of products ordered

  • Product type

  • Courier service

  • Special handling requirements

Applicable delivery charges will be displayed at checkout where possible or communicated to the customer before the order is finalised.

From time to time, Chesco Auto may offer free or discounted delivery promotions. Such promotions will be subject to their specific promotional terms.

5. Tyre Deliveries

Tyres are larger and heavier than many of our other products and may therefore have different shipping costs and delivery requirements.

Where applicable, delivery charges for tyres will be calculated according to the number of tyres, destination, courier requirements, and other applicable factors.

Customers purchasing multiple tyres may receive a consolidated shipping arrangement where available.

6. Large or Bulky Items

Certain products, including some rims, bakkie accessories, and other bulky automotive products, may require specialised or alternative delivery arrangements.

Chesco Auto may contact the customer after an order is placed to confirm:

  • Delivery address

  • Access requirements

  • Delivery costs

  • Available delivery options

  • Expected delivery timeframe

Additional delivery charges may apply where special handling or transportation is required.

Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate delivery address.

Please ensure that your order includes:

Chesco Auto is not responsible for delays or failed deliveries resulting from incorrect, incomplete, or outdated delivery information supplied by the customer.

If you realise that your delivery information is incorrect, please contact us as soon as possible.

8. Tracking Your Order

Where a tracking facility is available, Chesco Auto or the relevant courier may provide tracking information once your order has been dispatched.

Customers may use the tracking information to monitor the progress of their delivery.

Tracking updates may take some time to appear after an order has been collected by the courier.

9. Delivery Attempts

The courier may make one or more delivery attempts depending on its delivery procedures.

Customers should ensure that someone is available at the delivery address to receive the order.

If delivery cannot be completed because nobody is available, the address is inaccessible, or the delivery information is incorrect, the courier may:

  • Attempt delivery again

  • Contact the customer

  • Return the parcel to the depot

  • Return the parcel to Chesco Auto

Additional delivery charges may apply if an order has to be re-dispatched due to circumstances caused by the customer.

10. Inspection Upon Delivery

Customers are encouraged to inspect their order when it is delivered.

Where possible, check the packaging and products for visible signs of:

  • Damage

  • Missing items

  • Incorrect products

  • Tampering

If your order appears damaged, please take photographs of the packaging and product before or immediately after opening it and contact Chesco Auto as soon as possible.

  • Your order number

  • Description of the issue

We may request photographs, order information, or other details to assist with our investigation.

Where an error has occurred on our side, we will take reasonable steps to correct the issue.

Customers may be required to provide information reasonably necessary to assist with the investigation.

Where appropriate, we will provide a replacement, alternative solution, or refund in accordance with applicable law and the circumstances of the order.
