Christmas Seafood Pickup in Molendinar: 2026 Checklist

Tasman Star Christmas pack collection is at 12 Barnett Place, Molendinar QLD 4214, on Thursday 24 December 2026 from 10am to 2pm Queensland time. It is pickup only. Varsity Lakes and Labrador are not alternative collection points for these packs, even when those stores are open.

Put the correct address in your route

Save the address from your order confirmation before leaving. Searching only for the business name can direct you to a retail store instead of the Christmas collection location. Check live road conditions on the day and allow a realistic buffer; we do not promise a particular queue length or travel time.

Keep your order reference accessible on your phone. If another person may collect, contact the team in advance to confirm the required arrangement. Do not assume an unconfirmed change is accepted merely because you have forwarded an email.

Pack the car before you collect

Bring an insulated cooler appropriate to the quantity, with sufficient ice bricks or other suitable cooling. A large order and a long drive may need more than one container. Keep ready-to-eat items separated from raw seafood and prevent leaking packages from contacting other food.

Make collection the final food-shopping stop, then go to working refrigeration. A vehicle boot is transport space, not cold storage. If you are staying in holiday accommodation, check that you can access the refrigerator at the time of collection rather than waiting for an afternoon check-in.

Understand the collection terms

Christmas packs must be purchased separately from regular shop items. The collection location, date and time cannot be transferred. The published missed-pickup terms state that orders not collected within the designated window are non-refundable. Read those terms on the Christmas preorder page before payment and contact the team promptly if a problem arises.

The stores' extended Christmas hours do not extend this pickup window. For example, a store opening at 4am on Christmas Eve does not make pack collection available at 4am. Keep the store-hours guide separate from this collection checklist.

If you need ordering help

Call (07) 5522 1221. The team can help organise an order and send a payment link. Asking for help is useful before checkout if you are unsure whether your travel or accommodation plans fit the fixed collection arrangement.

Questions and answers

Can I collect my Christmas pack at Labrador?

No. The Christmas packs use the Molendinar collection address only. Labrador retail trading hours are separate.

Can I collect after 2pm on Christmas Eve?

The published collection window ends at 2pm. Do not rely on an extension; contact the team if you have a problem.
