💰 Shipping Rates

Shipping rates for orders placed with Premium Pool Equipment are calculated based on a range of factors, including but not limited to:

  • Product size and weight
  • Order value
  • Freight classification (standard, bulky, palletised or oversize)
  • Dispatch location (local warehouse or supplier-direct)
  • Stock availability
  • Delivery destination (metro, regional, or remote)
  • Carrier surcharges and fuel adjustments

Shipping charges are either:

  • Calculated automatically at checkout where available; or
  • Quoted separately where freight requires manual assessment; or
  • Confirmed after purchase if order details require supplier coordination

For certain large, heavy, fragile, or specialist items (including but not limited to heat pumps, large filters, pool covers, and palletised goods), additional freight charges may apply beyond standard checkout rates.

Where freight costs materially differ from automated checkout estimates due to supplier location, stock transfers, remote delivery zones, or freight reclassification, Premium Pool Equipment reserves the right to:

  • Contact the customer to confirm updated freight charges;
  • Provide a revised freight quote; or
  • Offer the option to proceed with adjusted freight pricing or cancel the order for a full refund.

Free shipping promotions (where offered) may exclude:

  • Oversized or pallet freight
  • Remote or regional delivery zones
  • Special order or supplier-direct dispatch items

📦 We aim to provide fair and competitive freight pricing without artificially inflating product prices to absorb shipping costs.

 

📦 Bulky & Oversized Item Handling

Large, heavy, or fragile items require special care.

  • We use trusted freight providers with experience handling pool equipment.
  • Deliveries may involve tail-lift trucks or coordinated drop-off times.
  • A customer service representative may contact you to ensure smooth delivery.
  • These items may not be eligible for PO Boxes or parcel lockers.

🔒 Rest assured, we treat every bulky shipment with professionalism, care, and attention to detail — from warehouse to your doorstep.

 

📬 PO Boxes & Parcel Lockers

  • PO Boxes: Accepted for smaller items sent via Australia Post.
  • Parcel Lockers: Supported where item dimensions allow.


🔍 Order Tracking

Once your order is dispatched, you’ll receive a confirmation email with a tracking link. You can follow the progress of your delivery via the carrier’s platform.

🛰️ Track your order in real time from dispatch to delivery — giving you confidence every step of the way.
