Delivery Information
Measure Before You Order
Customers are responsible for ensuring that all products ordered are suitable for use. Please check both product and packaged dimensions before ordering to ensure there is sufficient clearance to fit through all doorways, corners and pathways into the final position.
If you plan on taking your equipment up stairs or in an elevator, please make sure you have checked all clearances and weight of your equipment.
If you would like to request an exchange or return because your equipment does not fit through a doorway or clearance, this will count as a change of mind and may incur additional restocking fees and delivery charges.
For more information, please see our Return Policy for more details.
Delivery Cost
Delivery costs for each product is calculated based on the equipment’s weight, volume and destination.
To calculate standard delivery costs, please navigate to your desired product page on our website and enter your postcode into the delivery calculator.
If you are ordering multiple pieces of equipment, please contact us to see if any consolidated delivery fees are available from our couriers.

Receiving Delivery
Deliveries take place Monday to Friday during normal business hours, excluding public holidays.
All deliveries require a signature and cannot be left unattended.
We request couriers to contact you 24 hours prior to delivery to confirm the receiver will be available on-site to collect on the date of delivery.
Standard deliveries cannot confirm an exact time of arrival on the date of delivery. If you require a specific delivery window, please let us know as additional courier charges will apply.
Please note standard deliveries via couriers are completed by a single driver and are drop-off to kerbside ground level locations or dedicated loading areas only. Deliveries will be left in place for the customer to unpack and position inside the premises.
Standard delivery does not include:
- navigating any steps, stairs or lifts,
- removal of packaging, pallets or crates,
- installation or positioning inside your premises,
- connection to services, or
- removal of existing equipment
For your safety, please ensure at least two people are available on the date of delivery to assist when receiving heavy & bulky equipment.
For safe transport, your equipment may arrive on wooden pallets. To remove the pallet, you can use a household hammer to pry open the sides of the wooden pallet so the castor wheels can safely touch the ground.
Alternatively, we can enquire with third party couriers and/or removalists for an upgraded service to help you remove any wooden pallets. Please feel free to contact us if you would like to request a non-standard delivery service.
Your Responsibility
Customers are responsible for ensuring appropriate access conditions for delivery, otherwise additional charges may apply.
The first delivery attempt is included in your delivery purchase. If the delivery is unable to be completed, a futile delivery will be recorded and you will be liable for a second delivery fee.
A futile delivery may be recorded in situations such as, but not limited to:
- the receiver is not present at the time of delivery,
- the access conditions are not suitable for delivery via truck vehicles and requires the courier to park more than 20 metres away from the desired kerbside drop-off location,
- the receiver requests the courier to navigate any steps, stairs or lifts,
- the receiver requests the courier to remove packaging,
- the receiver requests the courier to bring the equipment in from the kerbside or into the premises
Any futile delivery charges from our third party couriers must be paid prior to arranging subsequent delivery attempts.
Pick Up
If you would like to arrange pick up from our warehouse (whether directly or via a courier), please provide identification of the designated receiver prior to pick up. Upon arrival, please request the designated receiver to bring their identification documents and a copy of your tax invoice upon arrival.
Before arrival, please check the packaged dimensions and weight of your equipment on each product page and ensure you have an appropriate vehicle to safely collect and transport.
Warehouse staff reserve the right to refuse any vehicle that is not fit to safely transport such equipment.
All refrigeration equipment must also be transported in an upright position to maintain the validity of your warranty coverage. Please check order and packaging thoroughly before departure. All responsibility for conditions will be transferred from Wellkart to the customer at this point in time.

What should I consider when choosing commercial refrigeration?
- Consider whether your commercial refrigeration will be generating revenue in your front-of-house, or maximising productivity in your back-of-house operations.
- With upright fridges and freezers for example, this will determine whether you prioritise improving visual display of merchandise, or maintaining performance by keeping your refrigeration components away from dirt, dust and grime.
- Evaluate how much space and features you will need based on your merchandising strategy, product types, sales turnover and inventory storage needs. Wellkart provides a complete range of commercial refrigeration equipment of varying sizes and configurations suited to your needs.
- Identify where to position your unit for ease of access, operations and maintenance. Always ensure you have provided sufficient clearance to allow ventilation to the compressor and condenser coils. Please ensure your refrigeration unit is not fully enclosed by cabinetry, or placed directly next to cooking equipment that may create concentrated hot zones.
- Please measure and check product and packaged dimensions before ordering to ensure sufficient clearance to fit through all doorways, corners and pathways into your premises.
Please Contact Us if you have any questions on which refrigeration equipment is right for your business needs.
