Warehouse Receiving Guidelines

Receiving Guidelines

Whenever sending any product to a Pik Pak warehouse, aim to follow our Receiving Guidelines so your shipment can be received without any delay or additional costs;


  1. Enter your Purchase Order details in advance (so our warehouse is expecting your goods in advance and will allocate space for you)
  2. Print and attach your Purchase Order (or reference the PO # in the accompanying paper work) with the goods (so our warehouse knows they belong to you)
  3. Ensure your products are labelled on the external packaging with your Item# or SKU codes (so we can identify them easily and accurately for you, without having to break open the original packaging)
  4. Cartons must only contain multiple units of a single item. Any mixed boxes (ie. "Non Compliant" with Receiving Guidelines) that need to be sorted and counted are marked as “mixed carton” (so the warehouse can receive them quickly for you)


Labels should include ;

  • Item Number - for easy identification (if possible)
  • Manufacturer Item ID - if your factory or supplier has already labelled the items
  • Description - so we can confirm & check the products with a real human (ie. not a machine)
  • Quantity in the carton
  • Carton Dimensions (Length x Width x Height) in centimetres
  • Carton Weight (in Kilograms)


Whenever you are sending product to a Pik Pak warehouse, remember to follow our receiving guidelines, where possible.

This will make things much smoother for you and will help us to Receive your stock onto inventory as soon as possible.
