About Outback Equipment:

Outback Equipment was born from a couple of mates with a big idea and an even bigger love for the outdoors. What started in the back of a garage quickly moved to a warehouse corner and now, over 10 years later, we’re running our own full-scale warehouse and showroom storefront in Acacia Ridge, Brisbane.

We kicked off with a fascination for light bars, but it didn’t take long to realise there was a lot more gear to get excited about. Outback Equipment has since grown into one of the largest online ranges of 4x4, camping, marine, and caravanning accessories in Australia. Driven by our customers’ passion for exploring the great outdoors, we’ve expanded our space, our range, and our mission.

Whether you're planning a weekend beach trip or the big lap around Oz, getting prepped can feel like a mission. We're here to make it simple. From expert guides and part finders to trusted advice and helpful customer service, we’re your starting point for any off-grid adventure.

We only stock gear we’d use ourselves. From brands like Aussie Traveller, MSA, CampBoss, BLA, Hardkorr, Superior Engineering, Tuff Terrain and Outback Explorer. With over 250 brands on our shelves and growing, we’re proud to support fellow adventurers at every stage of their journey.

We’re 100% Aussie-owned and operated, with our Brisbane showroom open 6 days a week. Swing by Acacia Ridge Monday to Friday (8am–5pm) or Saturday (8am–1pm), or call us on 1300 854 185 to chat about your next trip.

Took months to arrive, asked for a refund, was the sent half the order and refunded the rest, even though the half the was refunded was needed for the half that was eventually delivered.. phoned to see what was going on which was only then told that half the order was refunded. Didn’t respond to emails. Not impressed

Worst experience buying online I’ve had. First was a tow bar I elected to pickup the delivery. I didn’t realise until I got home that they had only given me half the order. Took another two days before they sent me the rest of the order. I gave them another chance and bought a complete suspension kit, this time I thought I’d have it delivered. The delivered half the right order and something completely wrong I received a completely assembled front set up and an un assembled front setup. Countless emails, a bunch of phone calls and I finally have the rear suspension parts I originally ordered. 1 holiday and 2x mechanic anointments cancelled. Customer support was outstanding! They did do a really good job… however their logistics is absolute garbage!! What should have taken 1 week has turned into 4! All I got was a sorry and that’s it!

Purchased a light bar online that appeared in stock, took over a week for outback equipment to tell me that it wasn't actually in stock, instead of a refund they offered me credit on my account, or store credit. Took a few emails to actually get a refund.

10 days after purchase, followed up to be told it wasn't dispatched yet as one item was out of stock. Asked them to cancel/refund that item and send the rest. When it got here, I was missing one item but had received a box of random items i didn't order. I reached out and they refuse to send the correct item until I lodge the incorrect items at a post office. I am not physically capable of just dropping everything to get a heavy box to the post office due to a mistake I did not make. I am happy for them to send a courier to collect the incorrect items, sure, but I cannot get to a post office. They are firmly refusing to supply the correct item, or return my money. The incorrect items are worth much less than the item I am missing, so it's not even a sneaky win. I am yet to receive any refund for the initial out of stock item. I spent $1052 and am only in possession of approximately half of that value of my order. Have had to lodge payment disputes and fair trading complaint. AVOID!

Caravan and trailer covers tear quite easy and tie of ropes become very brittle after on a short time. These covers weren’t made to stay out in the weather. Will be sourcing a different brand to this company

I couldn’t use the product I bought as it was misrepresented as comfortable and was so uncomfortable I couldn’t sleep on it. You wouldn’t provide a refund. I will never buy from you again. The product was the Oztrail “comfort” self-inflating pillow

If I could give 0 stars, I would.. My product arrived with missing parts. When I contacted them and asked for the replacement part to be sent express, they said they would. It took 3 more days before they even posted it, and they didn't ship it express. When I questioned this, they LIED and said it was sent same day, express. But I had tracking to show evidence it wasn't!! So then they offered me a store credit. When I asked for the same dollar amount to be refunded as compensation, they flat out refused, numerous times. Wasn't worth the fight, so I accepted the store credit (yay for making them more money... A holes)... But anyway the customer service was RUDE, LYING, and flat out atrocious!!! Never again. Ever. Ever. Ever.

Ordered a Redarc tow pro elite from there website, after 12 days and no email stating that the order had been shipped, I decided to call them. I was informed that they would not receive the goods from there supplier until the 30/06 then it would be dispatched, at no stage did there website state it was out off stock, as far as I’m concerned that is deceitful practice, I could have order from another supplier and probably received it in 7 days, now I’m probably have to wait close to a month to receive my order, when I order online I want my good ASAP. I will never order anything from Outback Equipment or will I recommend them to anyone . Luckily there numerous online stores the sell the same equipment and I never have to deal with them again.

Aussie Traveller caravan stone guard. We bought our stone guard in June 2024, 12 months in and all of the black mesh for the stone guard has perished and broken down from Sun exposure and the black frame is rusting. What makes it worse is the van is stored in the shade so the mesh has little exposure to the Sun. I would not recommend this product.

These pumps have a flaw in their design. The 90degree fitting pops off with the bouncing of the boat as it travels making the non return valve redundant. Of the four pumps I purchased two 90 degree fittings popped off flooding two hatches. One of the pumps caught fire in situation that no warranty has been offered from outback equipment . I have since replaced all these pumps with Johnson pumps. I would not recommend these pumps and strongly advise against using them. Outback equipment cannot be relied on for warranty support. If you purchase these pumps there’s a great chance they will flood your boat
