Terms & conditions of supply

  1. Acceptance of orders
    Any quotation given by WASCA lapses if not accepted within 7 days. WASCA will only accept orders which are accompanied by payment of the required deposit (if any). All quoted prices are exclusive of GST.
  2. Terms of payment
    Terms of payment where WASCA has accepted the Customer’s credit application are unless agreed otherwise by WASCA, 30 days from the end of the month of invoice. If payment is not made within the above terms WASCA is entitled to calculate and charge daily interest at a rate not greater than the maximum interest rate charged by ANZ on its credit card accounts from time to time, and WASCA reserves the right to recover from Customer all costs, expenses and charges incurred by WASCA in undertaking any debt recovery action, including legal fees on a full indemnity basis.
  3. Minimum invoice/order value
    Due to the administrative cost of each order, we are unable to process orders below the $75.00 invoice value.
  4. Default
    If Customer defaults in payment, fails to accept delivery of goods or an application is made to a court to wind up Customer, or a receiver or administrator or trustee-in-bankruptcy is appointed to manage the affairs of Customer, then WASCA may terminate the contract and may recover from Customer reasonable compensation for materials purchased and ordered and labour expended in complying with Customer’s orders.
  5. Delivery and risk
    While WASCA will use all reasonable endeavours to deliver by the date specified, it does not guarantee delivery on that date and is not liable for any loss resulting from late delivery. Risk in the goods passes to Customer at the time of delivery. Delivery to Customer is deemed to occur at the time of delivery to Customer, its agent or carrier.
  6. Passing of property
    Customer agrees that property in the goods is retained by WASCA until payment by Customer of all sums owing to WASCA, whether under this contract or otherwise. If Customer fails to pay by the due date any amount owing to WASCA, WASCA may (without prejudice to any of its other rights) recover and resell any goods in which property has not passed to Customer, and Customer hereby authorises WASCA to enter onto the premises where the goods are kept to take possession of the goods for that purpose at any time. If Customer sells or purports to sell any goods supplied by WASCA in which property has not passed to Customer, then Customer does so as a fiduciary for WASCA. The proceeds of such sale are the property of WASCA to the extent of any money owed to it by the Customer. The customer must account to WASCA for that portion of the proceeds of the sale, and WASCA may trace the proceeds of any such sale. Customer consents to registration by Seller of a financing statement under the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth) (“the PPSA”) to perfect the purchase money security interest created by this clause. The customer also agrees to the contracting out by Seller of each of the obligations which it is permitted to contract out of by Section 115 of the PPSA.
  7. Cancellations and returns
    Any request by the Customer for cancellation of an order must be in writing. The customer is liable to reimburse WASCA for the costs it has incurred for labour, freight and materials in fulfilling the order up to the date the request for cancellation is received by WASCA. WASCA will accept returns of standard goods provided the goods are: (i) unused; (ii) in their original packaging, and (iii) returned within 14 days of delivery; WASCA reserves the right to charge a $50 administration fee for the return of goods which are not faulty. WASCA will not accept the return of goods manufactured to the Customer’s order unless the goods are faulty.
  8. Force majeure
    Neither party is liable for any loss incurred by the other party as a result of any delay or failure to observe any of these Terms and Conditions (other than an obligation to pay money) as a result of any circumstance beyond the party’s control, including but not limited to any strike, lockout, labour dispute, an act of God, fire, flood, accidental or malicious damage or breakdown in machinery. The party affected must notify the other party as soon as possible of such circumstance. During the continuance of such circumstance the obligations of the party affected, to the extent, they are affected by the circumstance, are suspended and resume as soon as possible after the circumstance has ceased to have an effect.
  9. WASCA’S liability
    (a) Nothing in this document is to be interpreted as having the effect of excluding, restricting or modify any guarantee, condition or warranty, or right or liability implied by any applicable legislation into the arrangement between WASCA and Customer, if such exclusion, restriction or modification would be void or prohibited by the legislation.

    (d) Customer indemnifies WASCA against any Loss suffered by WASCA and any Claim made against WASCA by a third party arising out of or in connection with the supply of goods where Customer does not communicate [in writing] to WASCA at the time of ordering the goods the purpose for which it requires the goods or the purpose for which the goods will be used by a third party (as the case may be).
    (e) If any provision of these Terms & Conditions is unenforceable or void either in whole or in part for any reason then that provision (or part) is deemed to be deleted without in any way affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this document.
