Sydney summer + bushfire-season logistics contingency for my DTC?

Yes, this is the under-talked-about Sydney DTC risk. Sydney summer (Dec-Feb) is peak retail (Boxing Day, Click Frenzy bleed, January sales) but also bushfire season and severe-storm season, both regularly disrupt Australia Post + StarTrack + Sendle + Aramex delivery, especially into regional NSW (Blue Mountains, South Coast, Hunter Valley) and ACT. We build resilience: (1) multi-carrier failover, Magento configured with Australia Post Parcel Post + StarTrack Express + Sendle + Aramex, with auto-failover rules per postcode if a carrier flags service disruption; (2) bushfire-postcode automation, we ingest the RFS / SES disruption feed and auto-surface a "delivery delays possible" banner on PDP + checkout for affected postcodes (this saves customer-service tickets and protects review scores); (3) carbon-neutral shipping, Sendle is B-Corp + carbon-neutral by default, increasingly expected by AU DTC customers; (4) click-and-collect, if you have any physical retail in Sydney metro, we wire C&C as a backup option during disruption windows; (5) NZ split-fulfilment if you serve trans-Tasman, NZ Post + CourierPost from an Auckland warehouse can bypass AU disruption entirely.
