We can only process ONE order per customer at a time.
Layby with Layaway Depot
Choose your purchase
Browse our huge Layby only product range. Tap 'Customise Layby plan' to add item to cart.
Set your payment plan
The Mini Cart lets you customise your payment plan. Choose the plan length, and a payment frequency that suits you. You can Layby one item or place multiple items in one plan. You can have multiple plans, but need to log out and in again to create each extra one.
Checkout, make first payment
Review your payment plan, head to checkout and confirm your order. Make your first payment and you're buying the budget-friendly way.
Keep track on your dashboard
Your dashboard is a snapshot of your Layaway Depot account. You can track payments, check orders, adjust settings, get updates and more.
Complete plan, receive your order!
When your final payment has been processed, we quickly ship your product to you. Despatch will occur as close as possible to the date estimated when you customised your plan.
Delivery
All our stock is held in local warehouses in New Zealand.
Layaway Depot will usually dispatch your goods within 7 - 21 business days of completing your Layby payments.
This time frame factors in the confirmation of the Layby order include your payment method, processing and dispatch from the warehouse and the transport of the items via couriers. The 'In Stock' status on our website can mean the stock is either in our warehouse, or available with our supplier.
Whilst we endeavour to get items delivered to you as soon as possible we do, however, need to allow that 7 - 21 business day window to accommodate the processes above.
Delivery tracking details will be emailed to the email address on the account as soon as they are known. Your goods must be delivered to the delivery address as shown on your initial order.
Deliveries require a signature on delivery and if no one is at the property to sign for the package a calling card will be left by the driver with details of how to arrange redelivery or collection.
If their are multiple items on your order, you may receive multiple deliveries shipped by multiple couriers since items may be sent from different warehouse locations.
Large/bulky items (eg furniture and whitegoods) may take longer to deliver and may also incur an additional freight fee. If an additional freight fee is expected for your order you will be contacted via email after the order has been successfully placed.
