Frequently Asked Questions
Our products can be bought via:
Our website – www.packnet.co.za
Our warehouse showroom in Johannesburg. Orders here can be processed in person, on the phone or email submissions. Reach out to us by contacting us here.
Yes, we can arrange to deliver orders under certain conditions to Johannesburg, Pretoria or Vaal addresses. For other areas we can arrange for goods to be shipped to PUDO Lockers or use the Courier Guy service. For more info please visit: Collections and Deliveries Page
No, we have partnered with nearly 60 different manufacturers and suppliers to bring you the largest range of generic plastic bottle, buckets, related closures and accessories under one roof.
Unfortunately not at the moment. We do plan to open branches in future but for now, you can order online and we can arrange to ship all over South Africa.
No, we do not sell any glass products. Only plastic items at the moment.
Not at the moment, but we do have jars and bottles with lotion pumps dispensers.
We do have a 5Lt option but no 1.5Lt at the moment. We hope to have in the near future.
Yes, we do have a quantity discount system and discounts can be offered on bulk orders. However, the definition of bulk is subjective and “bulk” for us might mean a different amount that what you believe bulk is for you.
For example, some customers believe 10-20 units of a product would be considered bulk, but the norm in the packaging industry considers 3 000 or more units of an individual item to be the start of bulk ordering.
For PackNet, in store ordering, bulk starts at 500 or more units; on the website, bulk would be considered 3000 + units.
In order to request discounts, please contact us on 011 474 0360 and one of our friendly staff will assist to see if you qualify for better pricing.
In store Quantity Discount Breakdown:
- 1 - 499 units: Full Price
- 500 – 2 999 units: 5% Discount off Full Price
- 3 000 – 9 999 units: 10% Discount off Full Price
- 10 000+ units: Special Pricing Subject to Terms & Conditions
This depends on the quantities purchased. The online prices are our 3 000 – 9 999 prices but have to include the packaging costs to allow us to ship the items. This would make the online unit prices similar to our Full Price or 500 – 2 999 prices in store but more than if you were buying 3 000+ units at the warehouse.
Yes, but since we are based in Johannesburg, our reps can only make visits to Johannesburg, Pretoria and Vaal addresses. However, visits to other areas can be arranged under special terms and conditions.
Yes, specification for our products are available on special request.
