Quick Answer
Use the consignment number or barcode identifier shown on the Hunter Express consignment note, address label, booking confirmation or retailer dispatch message. Enter it in the Hunter Express tracking entry when the service is online, or try 17TRACK for available aggregated events. If no result appears, first check that you entered the consignment identifier rather than an order number and that the shipment has been physically collected.
How to Track Hunter Express Packages
| Route | Steps |
|---|---|
| Hunter Express website | Open the official website, choose the tracking entry, and enter the consignment identifier from the label or consignment note. The website may be temporarily offline. |
| 17TRACK | Enter the identifier at 17TRACK. Select Hunter Express if automatic recognition does not identify the carrier. 17TRACK only displays events it receives and cannot alter delivery instructions. |
| No number available | Ask the sender, retailer or booking account holder for the consignment note or label. An order number is not necessarily a transport tracking identifier. |
Once-off customers book through E-go, receive a consignment note or address label by email, attach one to each item, and make the goods ready on the selected collection date.
Tracking Number Formats and Examples
Hunter Express publicly refers to a registered consignment note, barcode and address label, but the supplied official pages do not publish a complete character-length or prefix specification. Do not infer the service solely from a partial number. Use the complete identifier exactly as printed, removing only accidental spaces or line breaks.
Tracking Number Format
| Identifier family | Normalized pattern |
|---|---|
| Hunter Express consignment identifier | Use the complete barcode-linked identifier printed on the consignment note or label. |
| Address label | Use the identifier printed on the emailed address label; the label must be attached to the relevant item. |
| Order or reference number | Merchant or booking reference; it may not be searchable as a Hunter Express consignment. |
Tracking Statuses and Meanings
Status Quick Lookup
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Label or consignment created | A booking or label exists; this does not by itself prove that Hunter Express has collected the goods. |
| Collected / in transit | The consignment has entered the transport process; subsequent events may reflect depot or line-haul handling. |
| Out for delivery | The shipment is in the delivery stage; ensure the address is accessible and someone can receive bulky freight. |
| Delivered | A delivery event has been recorded. If the goods are missing, check the premises and ask the sender to raise a ticket. |
| Exception / no update | Further action may be required from the sender, receiver or booking account holder; use the portal ticket process for an existing booking. |

Common Tracking Problems and Solutions
Problem & Solution
| Problem or status | First action |
|---|---|
| Number invalid | Copy the complete consignment identifier from the barcode label or consignment note and distinguish it from the retailer order number. |
| No tracking event | Confirm that the goods were ready for collection and ask the sender or booking account holder to verify the booking. |
| Long period without an update | Check the booking details, address and service type; the account holder should raise a portal ticket for an existing booking. |
| Address problem or failed delivery | Contact the sender or account holder promptly. Hunter Express requires a valid street address and does not deliver to post boxes. |
| Delivered but not received | Check entrances, reception areas and neighbours, then ask the sender to request the delivery record or investigate through the booking portal. |
| Lost or damaged freight | Preserve the packaging and evidence and review the applicable indemnity terms; a seven-day claim time limit is stated on the official site. |
| Booking cancellation | The account holder may log in to the Member Portal and raise a cancellation ticket with the booking reference; deductions depend on dispatch status. |
International Shipping, Customs and Carrier Handoffs
The supplied Hunter Express material describes domestic Australian services, not an international postal or customs network. Therefore, an international customs lifecycle, destination exchange office and overseas handoff should not be attributed to Hunter Express without shipment-specific evidence.
International Flow
| Stage | Applicable guidance |
|---|---|
| Australian domestic collection | Hunter Express collects and transports eligible domestic freight according to the selected booking. |
| International export, customs or overseas handoff | No general Hunter Express process is established by the supplied official pages; consult the actual seller, freight forwarder or export carrier. |
Delivery Management and Post-shipment Options
| Option | Verified condition |
|---|---|
| Ready-time selection | Same Day Courier customers may pre-book up to seven days ahead and specify a suitable ready time during booking. |
| Specific delivery time or time slot | A specific time or three-hour window can be selected and priced during booking; additional charges may apply. |
| Cancellation | The booking account holder raises a Member Portal ticket with the booking reference. |
Lost, Damaged, Claims, Insurance and Refunds
| Process | Use and condition |
|---|---|
| Indemnity cover | Approved customers may obtain limited transit insurance for eligible goods, subject to terms, exclusions and possible excess. |
| Loss or damage claim | A seven-day time limitation is stated for claims. Keep packaging, proof of value, photographs and the consignment documentation. |
| Booking refund | If a driver has not been dispatched, the official FAQ states a refund of the original invoice value less a 1% administration fee, with a minimum of $11 including GST; dispatch may affect the refund. |
Hunter Express states that inadequate packaging can make a loss or damage claim ineligible. 17TRACK cannot approve insurance claims, refunds or compensation.

Same Day Courier collection is typically 45–60 minutes when no ready time is specified in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane; Road Express timing depends on the booking and route.
Check that the shipment has a valid street address and contact the sender or booking account holder with the latest event and address details.
Check entrances, reception, neighbours and other authorised recipients, then ask the sender to investigate through the booking portal.
Preserve the packaging and evidence and submit the matter through the applicable booking or indemnity process within the stated seven-day claim limit.
