Postal Orders + Returns
When will the outfit arrive?
All weekend postal hires are posted express via Australia Post on either the Friday a week before your event weekend, Monday before or Tuesday (depending on how quickly the outfit is ready from the previous customer) unless otherwise arranged. For weekend hires we ask that you have your orders placed by 9pm on the Monday evening before the weekend of the event. It is at the customers discretion that all postal orders are placed at least 4 business days prior to your selected delivery date so our team have time to prep, packaged and send your outfit(s). We can not guarantee an order placed within 4 days of the event will make it in time.
Orders to major cities generally arrive within 1-2 business days and rural areas can take up to 2-4 business days. This is general advise based on Australia Post timeframes but may be affected by delays. So please ensure that you are placing your order at least 4 business days in advance to ensure we have the adequate time to ship your outfit(s).
We post from Metro Adelaide and estimated shipping timeframes to your area can be found on the Australia Post website. It is the customers responsibility to check shipping timeframes to their area and advise +One of any potential shipping delays.
What happens if the outfit doesn't arrive on time?
In the event the parcel is delayed by Australia Post, you will receive a full refund of the outfit hire price pending the outfit is returned the following business day in the same condition it was received.
Orders that have been delayed/unshipped due to failure to comply with +One booking processes are not entitled to any refunds or credits. Ie. Placing an order within 4 business days of your event.

All returns must be post before 10am on the next business day immediately following your event date to ensure you are complying with +Ones terms and conditions. Failure to have your outfit(s) lodged with Australia post before 10am on the next available weekday may result in a late fee for each day it has not been lodged. We strongly recommend you return your parcel over the counter at your nearest post office, as post boxes aren't always lodged daily.

Cleaning + Care
Standard cleaning is included in your hire price. Please do not attempt to clean outfits yourself without prior consultation from our team as incorrect laundering this can cause further damage to the outfit.

Damage
Accidents can happen and we understand this may occur. If something happens to the outfit, contact Eli from +One immediately. The quicker we are informed of a problem (in particular a bad stain) the easier it is to work together to rectify the issue quickly and prevent additional damage.
Do not attempt to clean the outfit yourself without prior consent from us. Incorrect cleaning can further damage the outfit/set in a stain and incur additional cleaning charges, or, in extreme cases, a full outfit replacement which incurs a fee of the full RRP of the outfit.

It is at the discretion of +One whether a garment is fit to return to the rack for re-rent. Any damaged garments that are deemed un-rentable will incur a fee of the full RRP of the garment + any loss of income due future bookings that will be cancelled.
Fake Tan
We have had issues with fake tan on some garments and so we are asking that if you choose to fake tan please do so 48 hours prior to wearing your dress. We also ask that you do not use any 'bronzing' top layer coats of instant tan or colouring on your body when wearing the garment. We appreciate your cooperation with this - we want to keep these gorgeous dresses in the best condition possible, so many expecting mamas can feel and look their best!
In particular the Mara Hoffman range of dresses aren't coping so well with fake tan, so please be mindful of this especially under the arms of the garment. Any tan that is unable to come out with specialty dry cleaning will not comply with our terms and conditions as the garment will be written off.
