TERMS & CONDITIONS
Amended Terms and Conditions - COVID-19 at Style by Nature
Here at Style by Nature, we love our Port Melbourne shop and the sense of community it brings with it. With that said & in accordance with Government regulations, to help protect our community. We are limiting the number of customers in the store so the process will become, 1 out, 1 in – we now have an easy click online store, offering delivery around the Port Melbourne & inner & outer -metropolitan area,
At Style by Nature, we have the very fortunate job of spreading happiness to your loved ones, and we want to make sure that it is only love & happiness we are spreading, and nothing else. By limiting our direct interactions with customers and the public, we aim to keep our staff, their families, and your loved ones safe.
As a precaution, we will no longer be delivering to schools, hospitals and nursing homes, instead only to residential addresses and businesses with a reception. We are restricted from delivering to lock down suburbs. Our Drivers will be limiting the time they spend in buildings – delivering to the receptions in office buildings (instead of directly to the recipient), and will be knocking on doors at residences & leaving the flowers on the doorstep, instead of waiting for someone to come to the door. Where possible, we ask that you opt to deliver flowers to a house rather than a business, to help protect our couriers and staff as much as possible.
Our staff are being sensible in their personal lives also. We are all fully committed to the government regulations limiting contact & our time in public spaces, and are practicing the recommended social distancing for the foreseeable future. We are ensuring that our shop & workspaces are clean & hygienically sanitized regularly
PLEASE NOTE COVID-19 Substitution Policy:
Images are used as guides only and variety & colour may not be exactly the same as the final product. In the case where a specific flower type or colour is unavailable within the given time frame of delivery, substitutions may be made within the arrangement to achieve the same overall shape, style and colour effect and to ensure that the order is delivered on time.
We are grateful for your continued support during these tough times, and as always, welcome any questions or queries through phone 03 9646 7171, or via email flowers@stylebynature.com.au
