Bunnings Warehouse catalogue and specials of the week

Bunnings Warehouse: the big green shed and its catalogue

From Bunbury timber yard to national shed

Bunnings began in 1886 in Western Australia, when two English-born brothers, Arthur and Robert Bunning, set up a timber business. Wesfarmers took a small stake in 1987 and owned the lot by January 1994, the same year the first Warehouse format opened at Sunshine in Melbourne. Today the group reports around 500 stores across Australia and New Zealand, with more than 53,000 team members. That count includes sister brands such as Beaumont Tiles and Tool Kit Depot, so the number of green-signed bunnings warehouse sites is lower than the headline.

Not every store is a giant. Wikipedia splits the network into big Warehouses, smaller-format stores with a narrower range, and Trade Centres aimed at builders. That matters when you search bunnings warehouse rockhampton or bunnings warehouse campbelltown: a Warehouse stocks the full garden centre and bigger timber, while a small store may only hold the basics. The parent also runs frame and truss plants for the housing industry.

On Australia, the chain sits firmly in House & Garden, with Mitre 10 as the nearest independent-style rival and Amart Furniture the place you head once the painting is done and you need a lounge.

Catalogue, specials and the question of sales

Plenty of people ask do bunnings have sales, and the honest answer is that the catalogue is where seasonal ranges and promotions show up. The edition we track right now runs from 01.10.2026 to 31.12.2026, has 8 pages and is a long-running quarterly style booklet, not a weekly leaflet, so you do not need to check it daily. If you want the bunnings warehouse catalogue as a download, a search for the bunnings warehouse catalogue pdf or the online catalogue will lead you to the official site, but we link the current pages here so you can flick through quickly.

Bunnings specials and deals are collected in the catalogue, and the stock you see depends on your store. Whether something is at your branch is worth checking before you drive, especially on a bunnings warehouse this weekend run when the car park is full. Garden, paint and tool ranges rotate with the season, so a spring edition looks very different to a winter one.

Comparing across the sector helps too. Harvey Norman covers appliances and furniture, Doors Plus focuses on doors and windows, and Electronics lists the gadget-led chains. For the weekly food shop, you will want Groceries instead, since a hardware catalogue will not help with the trolley.

Paying, loyalty and getting a job

Payment questions come up constantly. Afterpay arrived in Bunnings stores in September 2022 as an in-store option, split into four instalments with no minimum spend at launch. Because policies change, ask at the checkout or check the help pages before you rely on it, which is why people keep asking does bunnings do afterpay and whether it works in store or online. In November 2021 Bunnings also joined Flybuys, so points can be collected at the tills, with Wesfarmers holding a half share of that scheme.

The bunnings warehouse opening hours vary by site, and the store finder on the official website is the safe place to look; we do not list times here. The same finder is what you use for a bunnings warehouse near me search. The services desk is more than a till too, with key cutting, colour matching, gas bottle swaps and hire shop on the list, plus in-home installation and quotes on the company side.

Careers are another frequent search. People type bunnings warehouse jobs and bunnings warehouse careers, and the retailer lists openings on its own site, so we cannot say what is open right now. If you are comparing DIY and sporting hobbies on your days off, Anaconda and BCF are in Sport & Fashion, and Big W is a handy stop for homewares and toys after a paint run.
