Brisbane & Sydney Bulk Glass Pickup Runs
At Chockadoo, we know how quickly freight costs can add up when ordering large sheet glass and fragile supplies, especially for interstate delivery.
To help reduce shipping costs and make ordering easier, we’re exploring a Brisbane and Sydney bulk glass pickup run every 2 months.
This would allow customers to place prepaid online orders and collect them from a central pickup location or scheduled route stop during our delivery run.
We’re currently gauging interest to see if this is something our community would use regularly.

How It Works
Every couple of months, we would travel through selected Brisbane and Sydney locations with customer orders grouped into a bulk delivery run.
Customers would:
- Place and prepay their order online through our website
- Select products in advance of the run
- Collect their order from a designated pickup point during the scheduled collection window
This service is designed to reduce freight costs on:
- Large sheet glass
- Fragile items
- Bulk orders
- Studio orders
- Oversized items that are expensive to ship individually
Please note this is a collection-only service and not a door-to-door delivery.
How To Select Your Pickup Location At Checkout
To make ordering easier, we’ve created a quick step-by-step tutorial showing how to select your pickup location during checkout.
Terms & Conditions
Collection From Designated Locations
Orders must be collected from the nominated pickup location during the allocated time window.
We will not be doing individual home deliveries during the run.
Pickup Window
Each location will have a scheduled 2-hour collection window.
Customers must arrive within this timeframe to collect their order.
Exact details will be shared prior to the run.
Missed Pickup Policy
If you miss your allocated pickup window:
- Your order will not remain at the pickup location
- A courier or freight option will need to be arranged afterwards
- Any additional shipping costs will be at the customer’s expense
Order Submission Deadline
Orders must be placed within 3 days of the announced closing date for each run to be included.
Late orders may need to wait for the next scheduled run.
Sheet Glass Selection
All sheet glass must be preselected before the run.
To ensure accurate packing:
- Please provide photos or screenshots of your selected sheets
- Selections must be confirmed before packing begins
Loose browsing or selecting sheets at pickup will not be available.
Scheduling & Minimum Demand
To make bulk pickup runs viable and help keep costs down for everyone, each run will require a minimum level of participation.
If demand is lower than expected, we may delay or combine runs until enough orders are received for that area.
We’ll always keep customers updated with any changes to scheduling.
What To Expect On Pickup Day
Before the run, customers will receive:
- Pickup location details
- Collection time range
- Final instructions for collection
Please note:
- Sheet glass will generally be handed over loose and not pre-boxed
- Smaller items and accessories may be boxed or bagged
- Customers are responsible for checking their order at the time of pickup
Once collected, responsibility for transport transfers to the customer.
What To Bring
Please come prepared to safely transport your order.
We recommend bringing:
- Blankets
- Towels
- Foam or padding
- Cardboard separators
- Plastic tubs or crates
- Any other protective packing materials
Large sheet glass can be fragile, so proper packing in your vehicle is important.
