Buy the set online, have it delivered
Weights are the worst thing in a home gym to buy in person. A 10kg pair is two 10kg dumbbells, so 20kg in the boot, out of the boot and up whatever stairs you have. Having it delivered removes the trip, the lifting and the guesswork about whether it will fit in the car with the kids' seats still in.
This page covers the money side of that decision: which combinations clear the free delivery line, what the common sets cost once delivery is added, and what actually arrives.
Which sets clear the $75 free delivery line
Dumbbell prices are per pair, so a two pair set adds up quickly and most of them pass $75 without you trying. The crossover sits between the 2kg and 3kg pairs when they are matched with a 5kg.
| Two pair set | Weights | Delivery | Delivered total |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.5kg + 2kg | $48 | $9.95 | $57.95 |
| 1kg + 3kg | $57 | $9.95 | $66.95 |
| 2kg + 3kg | $64 | $9.95 | $73.95 |
| 2kg + 5kg | $78 | Free | $78.00 |
| 3kg + 5kg | $84 | Free | $84.00 |
| 5kg + 10kg | $128 | Free | $128.00 |
Anything from the 2kg plus 5kg combination upward ships free, and so does every set built around a 10kg pair or heavier. Below that you are in flat rate territory, where $73.95 for two pairs and $78 for two heavier pairs are close enough that the heavier set is usually the better buy.
Two pair sets and what they cover
Two pairs is the smallest set that lets you use a light weight for small muscle work and a heavier one for the big lifts. Four that people order:
- 0.5kg + 2kg, $57.95 delivered: the lightest useful pairing, aimed at rehab, Pilates style work and shoulders. This one pays the $9.95.
- 2kg + 5kg, $78 delivered: the first combination that ships free. The 2kg handles raises and rotator work, the 5kg handles rows, presses and goblet squats.
- 3kg + 5kg, $84 delivered: a step up if you have trained before and the 2kg would be too light within a month.
- 5kg + 10kg, $128 delivered: the pairing you outgrow last, and the one to pick if squats and carries are in the plan from day one.
A single pair on its own is the one purchase where delivery changes the maths, because six of the ten pairs sit under $75. Paying $9.95 once on a $29 pair is a third of the price of the weights again.
Three pair sets, delivered cost
Three pairs gives you a jump small enough to keep progressing without buying again for a year. Every three pair set except the lightest one ships free.
| Three pair set | Weights | Delivery | Delivered total |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.5kg + 1kg + 2kg | $70 | $9.95 | $79.95 |
| 2kg + 3kg + 5kg | $113 | Free | $113.00 |
| 3kg + 5kg + 10kg | $163 | Free | $163.00 |
| 10kg + 15kg + 20kg | $327 | Free | $327.00 |
The first row is the catch worth spotting. Three light pairs come to $70, which is $5 short of free delivery, so you pay $79.95. Swapping the 0.5kg pair for the 3kg pair makes the order $86 and free, which is $6.05 more for considerably more usable weight.
What arrives in the box
Fixed rubber hex dumbbells, ready to use. There is nothing to build and nothing to read.
- The pairs you ordered: solid one piece dumbbells, rubber coated hex heads, chrome knurled handles.
- No hardware: no collars, spin locks or spare plates, because fixed dumbbells have none.
- No tools and no assembly: unbox, put them on the floor, train.
- A tracking number by email: sent once the order ships, which is 1-2 business days after you order.
Clear the spot before delivery day. Dumbbells do not stack and they do not want to live on a shelf that was built for books, so the floor along a wall or a low sturdy rack is the realistic answer. Lift the heavier pairs one dumbbell at a time rather than dragging a carton across a timber floor.
PeterMat is online only, so there is no pickup
There is no shop, no showroom and no counter to collect from. PeterMat is two Australian mates selling direct online, so delivery is the only way an order reaches you. That means no click and collect, no local pickup and no trade counter price.
If you were hoping to collect to dodge the $9.95, the better move is to spend it on the order instead. One extra light pair usually pushes the total over $75, which removes the delivery charge and leaves you with more weight than you started with.
Questions before you order go to [email protected]. The current estimates and the threshold are on the shipping page.
Buying the set at once versus adding pairs later
Splitting a set across two small orders is the most common way people pay delivery twice. A 2kg pair on its own is $38.95 delivered, a 5kg pair on its own later is $58.95 delivered, so $97.90 for the two. The same two pairs on one order come to $78 with free delivery, which is $19.90 less for identical weights.
Two separate orders under $75 pay the $9.95 twice. The same pairs on one order over $75 ship free.
There is a timing argument as well as a price one. Each order carries its own 1-2 business day dispatch window and its own transit estimate, so two orders to a regional address can mean two waits of 6-12 business days instead of one. Decide on the full set first, then order it.
Adding a mat to the same order
A mat is the cheapest way to lift an order over $75 and it is the thing most people buy second anyway, after the first heavy pair meets the floorboards. Two combinations that ship free:
- Premium Yoga Mat plus the 3kg pair, $94: the light option for floor work, stretching and low impact training.
- Interlocking Foam Tiles (4-Pack) plus the 2kg pair, $94: covers a larger footprint and can be pulled up and stored between sessions in a rental.
For heavier pairs, put recycled rubber under them rather than foam. The comparison of mats against weights, and which order to buy them in, is in the weight set and mat bundle guide. For coverage, transit times and how the pairs handle freight, see dumbbells delivered Australia wide.

$65Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a weight set delivered to my door in Australia?
Yes. PeterMat sells online only and delivers to the address you enter at checkout, in every Australian state and territory and to New Zealand. Orders over $75 AUD ship free, orders under $75 pay a $9.95 flat rate, and dispatch is within 1-2 business days.
Which weight sets qualify for free delivery?
Any order over $75 AUD. In practice that is almost every multi pair set: the 2kg plus 5kg pairing at $78, the 3kg plus 5kg at $84, and every three pair set from $86 upward. Small combinations such as the 2kg plus 3kg pairs at $64 stay under the line and pay the $9.95.
Can I pick up my order instead of paying for delivery?
No. PeterMat has no store, showroom or pickup counter, so every order is delivered. If you want to avoid the $9.95 flat rate, add enough to the order to pass $75 and delivery becomes free.
What does a starter weight set cost delivered?
A 2kg plus 5kg two pair set is $78 delivered with no delivery charge. A three pair 2kg, 3kg and 5kg set is $113 delivered. The lightest sets, such as 0.5kg plus 2kg at $48, stay under $75 and come to $57.95 once the $9.95 flat rate is added.
Do the dumbbells need assembling when they arrive?
No. Every pair is a fixed one piece rubber hex dumbbell with a chrome knurled handle, so there are no collars, spin locks or spare plates and no tools needed. They are usable straight out of the carton.
Is it cheaper to buy all the pairs at once or one at a time?
All at once, in most cases. Two separate orders under $75 pay the $9.95 twice, so a 2kg pair then a 5kg pair bought separately is $97.90, against $78 for both on one order. Buying together also means one 1-2 business day dispatch and one transit wait rather than two.
How soon does my set get dispatched?
Orders are processed and dispatched within 1-2 business days, and a tracking number is emailed once the order ships. Transit after that is 3-5 business days to metro Australia, 5-10 regional, 7-14 remote and 7-14 to New Zealand. Those are estimates and can stretch in peak periods.
