Pick and Pack Services in Sydney

Wrong picks and packing errors turn into refunds, replacement postage and customers who do not order again. We pick and pack every order from our Sydney warehouse with each item scanned against the order, so a mistake stops in the aisle instead of at your customer's door.

How a wrong pick gets caught before it ships

Most picking errors are not carelessness. They are two variants of the same product sitting next to each other, or a similar SKU one bin over. The scan step exists to make that specific mistake impossible to complete rather than to record it after the fact.

  • The scan is checked against the order line, so the wrong variant will not accept.
  • The picker is stopped in the aisle, where the correct unit is an arm's length away.
  • The bench reconciles every line again before the carton is sealed.
  • The QA photo records what went in, so a query is answered from evidence.

The right carrier for each order.

We hold accounts with Australia's major carriers and route each order to the best-fit service.

What our pick and pack services cover

Scanned picking

Every item is scanned against the order line as it comes off the shelf. The scan is a gate rather than a record, so picking the wrong variant stops the pick in the aisle instead of being discovered by your customer.

Packing to your spec

Orders are packed with your cartons, satchels, inserts and tape. The spec is recorded per client, so the same order packs the same way whoever is on the bench that day.

QA photo on every order

The packed contents are photographed at the bench before the parcel is sealed. The photo stays attached to the order, which is what settles a dispute about what actually went in the box.

Weighing and labelling

Each parcel is weighed at the bench and the carrier label is generated from that weight, so the freight charged reflects the parcel that shipped.

Multi-item and kit orders

Orders with several lines are picked as one job and reconciled line by line at the bench. Kits and bundles are picked as their component units so stock stays correct underneath.

Returns back into stock

Returned parcels are inspected against the original order and either put back into sellable stock or quarantined, with the outcome recorded against the return rather than adjusted silently.

Inside a pick and pack run

Picking is organised as runs across the racking rather than one walk per order, and every stage is recorded against the order it belongs to.

  1. Orders are batched into a run

    Paid orders are grouped into a picking run rather than walked one at a time, so the floor covers the aisles once for many orders instead of once per order.

  2. The picker is routed to the stock

    Each run is ordered by location, so the picker walks the shortest path through the racking. Units are picked from recorded locations, not from memory.

  3. Each item is scanned against its line

    Scanning is what confirms the unit in hand is the unit the order asked for. A mismatch stops the line there, before the order reaches the bench.

  4. The order is packed and photographed

    At the bench the lines are reconciled against the order, packed to your spec, photographed, then weighed and labelled for the carrier.

  5. It is dispatched and written back

    The parcel goes out with the carrier suited to its weight and destination, and the tracking number is written back to the order in your store automatically.

Picking and packing questions

What is the difference between picking and packing?

Picking is pulling the right units off the shelf for an order. Packing is what happens at the bench: the lines are reconciled, the order is packed to your spec, photographed, weighed and labelled. Most of the errors that reach a customer happen in the picking half, which is why every item is scanned against the order line before it gets to the bench.

What is included in your pick and pack service?

Receiving and putting away your stock, picking each order with a scan against every line, packing to your spec, a QA photo of the packed contents, weighing and labelling the parcel, dispatch, and returns processing. Stock levels and order status stay live in your dashboard throughout.

How are pick and pack services priced?

Storage is charged on the space your stock occupies. Fulfilment is charged per order, with the pick, the pack and the shipping itemised separately rather than bundled into one rate. You get a written rate card before you send any stock.

How do you keep picking accurate?

Every item is scanned against the order line as it is picked, so a wrong unit stops the pick rather than continuing to the bench. Lines are reconciled again at packing and the packed contents are photographed before the parcel is sealed. Our stated target is 99.9% order accuracy.

How quickly are orders picked and packed?

Orders that reach us before 2pm AEST on a weekday are picked, packed and dispatched the same day. Anything after the cutoff goes out the next business day.

Can you pack orders with our own materials and inserts?

Yes. Your cartons, satchels, inserts and tape are held here and the packing spec is recorded per client, so orders pack consistently regardless of who is on the bench. If you would rather we supply the packaging, that is charged at cost with a stated markup.

Do you handle orders with multiple items or kits?

Yes. Multi-line orders are picked as a single job and reconciled line by line at the bench. Kits and bundles are picked as their component units so the underlying stock count stays correct.

Where is your pick and pack warehouse?
