How managed cellarage works

1

Get a quote

Explore our Managed Cellarage locations and request a quote based on your collection size and needs. Confirm with us when you’re ready.

2

Arrange delivery or pick up

Ship your wine directly from a winery or reseller. With direct-to-cellar delivery, never have another wine order left sweltering on, or stolen from the front door. We can help coordinate home pickup through a trusted wine-specialist logistics partner.

3

Manage your collection

Your Cellar Manager will inspect, catalogue, and QR code each bottle before adding it to your online ‘My Cellar’, where you can track, manage, and request wine delivery anytime.

4

Sell and buy online

Use ‘My Cellar’ to trade on Marketplace – nominate your wines to sell, or purchase new ones (on Marketplace or elsewhere), and have them delivered straight to your Wine Ark cellar for checking, cataloguing and storage.

Wine Ark Managed Cellarage FAQs

The common questions answered

Yes, you can. For managed clients, each delivery is receipted, inspected, catalogued, and added to the online inventory. Vault clients have their wine held for two weeks, and we’ll let you know as soon as it’s ready for collection. If a vault case remains longer than two weeks, it moves into managed storage and the standard fees apply.

No, there’s no need to book an appointment prior to dropping off your wine. However, withdrawals do require 24 to 48 hours’ notice, depending on the size, so we can prepare your order.

Our standard turnaround is two weeks for inspection and cataloguing, with any delays for larger collections communicated by your Cellar Manager.

Where possible, wine is consolidated into 12‑bottle cases, except when premium wines arrive in wooden six‑packs, which are kept in their original format for safety and integrity. If your original box is not fit to cellar, they are repacked into Wine Ark cellarage cases and invoiced accordingly.
