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.

Gear up. Get out.

“The motor operates fine. However Outback Equipments performance was far from satisfactory. The delivery of the part took excessive time to arrive and when I contacted Outback Equipment they did not want to know, just said out of our hands. They organised the freight company and should follow up with them if delivery is delayed. The freight company they use is extremely difficult to contact and really weren't interested in improving the situation. I will not be using Outback again due to the poor performance.”

“Sorry, but a very poor experience, on two fronts. Firstly, a staff member took my order over the phone, knowing that you didn't have the item in stock, and then I got an email a day or so later to say that the supplier was out of stock and the product was going to be a month away. Of course, I cancelled the order and got it from elsewhere within days. The second issue I have is using Aramex as your delivery company. It doesn't matter who I order from, but when Aramex is involved, it's always going to be late, without fail! I did have another item on order with you and the tracking system told me that it was at Aramex's Brisbane depot (I'm in Brisbane). It sat there for days until I jumped up and down to get it delivered.I know you can't control this, but it reflects badly on you and I have to think twice about whether I order something from you for this reason.”

“Outback need to be more upfront regarding whether an item is in stock or not, apparently it’s up to the purchaser to ask, When I’m paying express postage I expect my purchase to be sent quickly Communication was prompt but they never came back with a delivery time as they said they would in emails Personally I will use a different supplier in future”

“I ordered my item on the 25/7 and I expect it will be delivered on the 13/9. Before I ordered the item I receive contradictory advice about whether or not it was in stock and whether or not it would be delivered before I went away. Item arrived in time but was the wrong type. Went through the 3rd degree to establish the item was wrong. I did not receive an apology and was sent courier details to send it back. I tried to contact someone to negotiate buying the wrong item so that the correct one would be delivered ASAP. I went through 4 different people and was told the item was not in stock and needed to be delivered in. I purchase the wrong item to get the ball rolling. It took over a week before the stock arrived in Qld and then forwarded on to me. It felt like there was no urgency in getting the right goods to me and I say again, no apology. I wanted to contact someone in charge but there was no contact details. Not happy Jan.”

“If you write something bad it doesn't go through. So I had the most amazing experience of being delivered the wrong UHF radios and having to pay blokes who didn't know where they were or what they were doing. For 2 weeks. Because that's how long it takes to send a wrong item back and get a replacement if you live 85km from town. Great job guys!”

“Placed an order of 5 items on the 6th, didn't get any feed back thinking they would be delivered in a few days. Sent an email on the 8th inquiring about my order and was told some things on back order and would arive on 16th. Heard nothing by the 19th so sent another email, no reply by 20th so I called to find out what was happening. Was told some items would not be in stock till the end of the month.”
