- Bunnings (Hardware chain)
Bunnings Hardware acquired the Hardware House Superstore chain and subsequently closed many of these stores around Australia. PACK & SEND was commissioned to utilise its national network to assist in the return of several thousand pieces of computer equipment from these stores back to a central warehouse. This task involved the pick up of computers and then each piece was required to be thoroughly cleaned. Each computer was then catalogued, professionally packed and freight forwarded to the central warehouse.
- Virgin Blue (Airline)
With only 3 weeks remaining to Christmas, Virgin Blue required the packaging of 2,400 staff Christmas presents with delivery to be made to home addresses in four capital cities. The challenge was made more difficult because each Christmas pack consisted of a number of gifts (wine, cutlery, backpack etc) with each of these components located in different States of Australia. Utilising the advantage of the national network, PACK & SEND was the only company willing and able to satisfy Virgin Blue's time restricted needs to successfully complete this task.

Notebook Depot market and distribute leading edge technology, computer software, hardware and peripherals throughout Australia. Their PC and Service Centre approached PACK & SEND to assist in the efficient returns management process for items that needed repair under warranty.

This process unique to PACK & SEND has allowed Notebook Depot to outsource this total function nationally to PACK & SEND and streamline the process of returns management.

QANTAS airlines faced the challenge of having staff dedicated to daily packaging and courier despatch of items found on their planes and terminals that had been inadvertently left behind by passengers (mobile phones, diaries, suits, bags, laptop computers etc).
