Custom workwear & uniforms in Reservoir
Custom workwear, uniforms and hi-vis delivered to Reservoir and across Melbourne.
Reservoir is an established suburb in Melbourne's north, about 12 kilometres from the CBD in the City of Darebin, with a population of 51,096 recorded at the 2021 census. The suburb takes its name from three reservoirs built in 1864, 1909 and 1913 to hold water piped down from Yan Yean, and today is a mix of older brick and weatherboard homes alongside a growing number of new developments. Team & Trade Apparels supplies businesses, trades, clubs and schools across Reservoir with custom hi-vis, polos, jackets, pants, caps and teamwear, logo printed or embroidered, including fully sublimated garments made to order and delivered Australia-wide.
With ongoing residential development across the suburb, building and trades businesses working in and around Reservoir need reliable hi-vis and branded workwear for crews moving between sites. Local schools and sporting clubs drawing from Reservoir, Preston, Thornbury, Northcote, Bundoora and Mill Park typically need matching uniforms for the whole team or year level in one job, while retail and service businesses along the suburb's shopping strips look for consistent polos and jackets for staff.
Ordering runs through Team & Trade Apparels's online catalogue: choose garments, enter quantities against each size, mixing sizes and colours within a single product where needed, and upload a logo. Product pages show the manufacturer's size chart in centimetres where the manufacturer publishes one. Once a quote is requested, a measured artwork proof is prepared within one to three business days, and nothing is printed or embroidered until that proof is approved. Finished orders are then delivered to Reservoir.
Delivery also covers nearby Preston, Heidelberg and Thornbury, the rest of Melbourne and Australia-wide.
This week in Reservoir
Spring often brings a pick-up in hiring for trade and industrial businesses around Reservoir and the surrounding Darebin area, as building and development work continues across the suburb. For businesses bringing on new starters this time of year, it is worth checking current uniform stock against your team list and placing a top-up order early, so new hi-vis, polos or jackets with your logo are ready before the new starter's first day rather than after it. Ordering a small batch now, rather than waiting until numbers grow further, also makes it easier to keep sizing and colours consistent across the whole crew as the busier spring and summer building season gets underway.
