Triton Express for Pallets
For consignments of more than 50kg, goods are palletised and sent with Triton Express. Palletising items ensures that all your items are kept together and reduces the risk of damage in transit.
Triton Express consignments weighing up to 3000kg are charged per pallet and calculated based on the consignment weight. Delivery is available Monday-Friday.
Each destination within SA is included in one of Triton’s delivery hubs. Each hub (eg Pretoria, East London etc) consists of a central zone with increasingly rural outer rings around it. This is a summary of the transit durations and delivery times from Elio Electro Tech’s warehouse for each of the main delivery hubs

Access and Drop-off
Triton consignments are usually delivered in articulated trucks. Any Access Issues/Forklift Availability/Staff to offload at the site should be highlighted to your Order Processor, so that the necessary requirements can be arranged in advance.
Please note: Delivery drivers will unload shipments to the nearest point safely accessible with a pallet truck. Drivers will not unpack or shift loads by hand.
Large Shipments and Dedicated Delivery
For larger consignments of more than 3000kg, the Elio Electro Tech portal will display POA (price on application) and our staff will negotiate the most competitive delivery cost for you.

Any shipments large enough to need to be shipped from Kempton Park will be adjusted by our Order Processing team. Your delivery will be arranged on a POA basis and you will be notified of the delivery cost and delivery
arrangements.
