What is Rescue Reads?

We are a second-hand online bookshop that raises money for animal rescue. Every book you purchase helps support animals in need. 

​

Where are you located?

We are located in Perth, Western Australia.

​

Can we come and visit your business to purchase books?

Unfortunately, we are an online only store. If you are looking for a particular book though, feel free to reach out and we can keep an eye out to see what comes through our doors. 

​

How much do you donate to the animal rescues?

We donate 10% of ALL sales.

​

How do you pick which rescues to donate to?

A different rescue listed on our Donate page is selected each month. Once all rescues have each had a month, the process will begin again. 

​

I am part of an animal rescue not listed on your Donate page. Can we be added?

Of course! Get in contact with us and we will add you to our donations list, if your rescue ticks all the boxes. 

​

How do I place an order?

Simply browse or search our online store, add books to your cart, and check out using our secure payment system.

​

Where do you ship to?

We currently are only shipping within Australia. If you are outside Australia and interested in a certain book, please contact us to see if we can arrange something. 

​

How much is shipping?

Shipping is a flat rate of $10.00. Free shipping for orders over $50.00.

​

How long does it take to put an order through and for me to receive it?

We are only a small, family run company, so orders are typically processed within 3 business days. How quickly you receive your order depends on the postal service's delivery times. 

​

What condition are the books in?

Our books range from "like new" to very well-loved. Each listing includes details about the condition, so you know what to expect. 

​

Do you accept returns?

Due to the nature of second-hand books, we generally do not accept returns. However, if you receive the wrong book or a book is significantly different to the condition it was listed as, please contact us within 1 week of receiving the book. 

​

Can I donate books to Rescue Reads?

Absolutely! We welcome book donations. Please get in contact with us to find out your nearest drop-off location. If you have a large donation (eg, 50+ books) let us know and we may be able to arrange pick-up from you. 

​

What kind of books do you accept?

We accept most fiction and non-fiction books. Contact us to find out if your books will be suitable donations for us.
