How it works
- Choose your starting point. Pick a package or send your Flow cart.
- We prepare your quote. We check your equipment selection, bee availability and meeting-point choice or full installation address.
- Confirm your package. Your quote explains equipment ordering, payment and delivery arrangements before you commit.
- Prepare for your bees. Assemble and position your hive, then arrange meeting-point handover or bee installation.
You build the hive. We bring the bees.
Your hive must be positioned, clean, fully assembled and set up before your bee appointment. We install the bees only; assembly, stand construction and moving the hive into position are not included. Send photos of the assembled hive, its location and access so we can confirm readiness.
The bee-only package includes a 7-frame nuc at $450 plus the chosen meeting-point delivery fee. Installed packages use the FlowReady prices, with optional waxed wired frames at $12 each and travel at $85 / $165 / $250 for the three distance bands; over 60 km is by quote. Flow equipment and its freight are additional.
Bee lead time: approximately 1–2 weeks, weather dependent. We confirm colony readiness and suitable conditions before scheduling. Flow equipment availability and freight timing are confirmed separately; have your equipment ready before the bee handover or installation.
Already own a Flow Hive?
You may only need bees or an installation service. See FlowReady — a 7-frame nuc installed into your prepared Flow Hive.
Flow equipment is quoted at Flow’s applicable retail price. Your quote will list equipment, bees, freight and any installation charges. Equipment is ordered through Flow using the customer’s email address, with delivery to the agreed address. Happy Bee is a Flow Hive Ambassador and may receive a commission on eligible equipment orders.
