Roses Only Event Days

  • Updated

Please review the following details if you have reserved a Roses Only Slot for any of the following days: 

12-14 February 2026.

 

What is a Slot? 

A Slot is a pre-defined delivery window during which you complete assigned deliveries from Roses Only for a guaranteed earnings amount.  

Before accepting a Slot, you can review key details, including: 

  • Pick-up suburb
  • Delivery area
  • Item types 
  • Expected job count 

 

What happens when you accept a Slot 

By accepting a Slot, you agree to: 

  • Completing all assigned deliveries within the Slot duration 
  • Accept any jobs allocated to the Slot 

Please note that all job assignments are managed solely by Sherpa and individual job prices are replaced by the fixed Slot fee.

 
Pick up requirements 
  • You must arrive at the pickup address within your scheduled pickup window to collect your items. 
  • If you miss this window, Sherpa reserves the right to unassign your slot without compensation and may also result in a warning. 
 
Unassignment policy 

If you cannot commit to your run, you must unassign the run as soon as possible. Very late unassignment may result in a warning, and repeated instances may lead to being blocked from future Slots. 

 

Delivery requirements 

These are flower and/or hamper deliveries - please deliver them within 4 hours to prevent damage and ensure timely drop-offs. 

Drivers are expected to make a reasonable effort to complete each delivery. This can include simple steps such as attempting to contact the recipient when appropriate. 

If a delivery is marked as failed for reasons like no parking, no one available and a reasonable attempt has not been made, the job may not be eligible for payment. 

 

Slot cancellations 

 

Saturday, 14th February  runs (pick up before 10am)

  • If Sherpa cancels your Slot on the day of the scheduled pick up time, you will receive $72.19 (including GST) as compensation. 
  • If Sherpa cancels your Slot the day before your scheduled pick up time, there will be no compensation. 
     

Thursday, 12th February, Friday, 13th February and Saturday, 14th February (pick up at 10am or after)

  • If Sherpa cancels your Slot within 60 minutes of the scheduled pick-up time, you will receive $57.75 (including GST) as compensation. 
  • Cancellations made more than 60 minutes before the scheduled pick-up time will not be compensated. 

 

Return policy 

Items can be returned on the same day if the warehouse is still open. Otherwise, please return them the next day.

Delivering on a Saturday? The warehouse will likely be closed on Sunday. Please return the items on Monday instead.

Please note: If returning multiple items, payment will be calculated for a single return job which will be based on the furthest drop from the pick-up point. 

 

Event Days are one of our busiest days, and your cooperation is appreciated. Please keep your phone lines open, as we may reach out for ETA updates. If we do not hear from you for an extended period of time, we may need to unassign your run with no compensation.

We look forward to working with you!
