Keeping install crews installing
Solar margins live and die on completed installs per week. A missing inverter, a short-shipped rail kit or a cracked panel discovered on site can stall a whole crew — and rebooking the customer costs more than the freight ever will. Drop-X runs the rescue: collected from the wholesaler within the hour, delivered to the roof-side same day, anywhere in metro Melbourne and out to regional installs.
Fragile freight, handled properly
Panels travel upright and restrained; inverters and batteries are secured and kept dry; high-value commercial gear can run as a dedicated single-consignment vehicle. Wholesalers and volume installers doing daily site drops qualify for freight accounts with consolidated billing and priority dispatch.
What we typically move
- Solar panels — residential and commercial
- String and hybrid inverters
- Battery systems and enclosures
- Mounting rails, clamps and roof kits
- Isolators, breakers and electrical BOS
- EV chargers and smart meters
- Replacement panels for warranty swaps
- Commercial project staging deliveries

Frequently asked questions
Can you deliver solar panels without damage?
Yes. Panels travel upright, restrained and padded, moved by drivers who handle fragile freight every day. Photo proof at delivery documents the condition on arrival.
How fast can a missing part reach an install site?
Pickup from the wholesaler is typically within 60 minutes, with metro site deliveries completing in 1–3 hours — usually fast enough to keep the crew on site rather than rebooking the customer.
Can you carry a full residential system in one run?
Yes. Panels, inverter, battery, rails and hardware for a typical residential install travel comfortably on a one-tonne tray or van, up to 1000kg palletised.
Do you deliver batteries?
Yes — home and commercial battery systems are moved secured and upright per the manufacturer's orientation requirements. Flag the model at booking so the right vehicle and restraint are used.
Do you service regional installations?
Yes. Same-day runs to installs around Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo and across regional Victoria with fixed pricing by destination from $330 inc GST.
Can wholesalers set up regular site-delivery accounts?
Yes. Wholesalers and volume installers running 5+ deliveries a day qualify for freight accounts — invoice terms, consolidated billing and priority dispatch.
