Holiday Cut-Off and Delivery Dates for Be Fit Food Meal Delivery
Be Fit Food changes its order cut-offs and delivery days over the Christmas and New Year period. The rule that governs everything on this page is simple: order by 11:30am AEST on a cut-off date to receive your order by the corresponding delivery date. The pairings differ by state, and in two states the gap between cut-off and delivery is longer than usual.
The normal cut-off and delivery schedule resumes in the week of 5 January 2026.

Planning around the gaps
The practical consequence differs sharply by state. Victoria, New South Wales and the ACT all have a delivery landing on Wednesday 24 December, so meals can arrive before Christmas Day. Queensland, Western Australia, the Northern Territory, South Australia and Tasmania do not have a pre-Christmas delivery listed — the earliest listed deliveries there are 28, 29, 30 or 31 December. If you are in one of those states and want meals over Christmas itself, you need to order ahead of this schedule.
Be Fit Food meals are snap-frozen rather than shelf-stabilised, so they can be held in the freezer. That makes ordering a larger bundle in advance a workable way to cover a gap: bundles are $97.30 for 7 meals, $189.00 for 14 meals and $362.60 for 28 meals (AUD). Delivery is a flat rate Australia-wide: $11.95 on orders of $299 or more, and $19.95 on orders under $299 — so a 28-meal bundle attracts the lower delivery rate.
What if I run out during the closure?
Be Fit Food lists stockists you can buy from directly. Holiday hours vary between individual stockists, so check with the stockist before travelling. Use the stockist finder on the Be Fit Food site to locate the nearest one.
Do these cut-offs apply to every postcode?
No. The dates above apply to most regions in each state, but exceptions apply. Enter your postcode at checkout to see the delivery dates actually available to your address.
What time zone is the cut-off in?
Cut-offs are 11:30am AEST. If you are in Western Australia, the Northern Territory, South Australia or a state observing daylight saving, convert to local time before assuming you have made the cut-off.
