Full Truck Load

When you have a full truck load of products or equipment to move, there are some significant efficiencies that can improve transit times, reduce handling and enhance quality. Our nationwide FTL direct delivery service means that the truck that picks up your consignment will directly deliver it to the customer. This means no double handling of your product, reducing the risk of damage.

Hazardous Goods

Specialist knowledge, understanding and detailed documentation is mandatory when transporting and handling dangerous goods and hazardous substances.

While many carriers are exiting the hazardous goods market, we are intensifying our commitment to serving this complex business segment. Over many years we have uniquely combined our research, investment, experience and processes to create a dangerous goods transport solution that pro-actively addresses changing compliance laws.

How we support your business

Purpose Built Facilities

Raised docks allow loaders to have better line of sight when loading your product. The latest materials handling equipment ensures safe and efficient movent of your products. Open plan offices provide clear communication and operation visibility. It is all about minimising risk and making your life easier when we are moving your valuable goods.

Pallet Control

Our dedicated branch-based pallet controllers discuss and agree on pallet management arrangements prior to despatching consignments, so that a robust process is set up to save time and money.

Customer Service

Our decentralised customer service teams are in each branch, making decisions as close to customers as possible. This provides timely, accurate information on shipment status, reducing the time your team may spend on the phone chasing down responses.

Product Return Services

Third party pick-ups or returns can often cause unnecessary inconvenience due to poorly presented freight or a lack of consignment paperwork. MoveIt is a service offered to control the process from pick up through to delivery. For an additional charge, the Mainfreight team will generate the consignment note and labels, with the driver tasked with labelling the pallets at pick up. MoveIt ensures the pick-up and delivery instructions are met when you or your team aren’t in control of the despatch process.

Timeslot Management

We understand that strong working relationships and delivery performance with wholesale and retail chain distribution centres (DC’s) are critical success factors. For this reason we provide daily delivery services to FMCG (e.g. Officeworks, Coles, Woolworths, Bunnings) DC’s across the country.

Each of our decentralised branch operations have a dedicated timeslot coordinator on site to build rapport with local DC team members. This ensures strict delivery deadlines are met giving you peace of mind around important retail deliveries and making sure your valuable brand image with major customers is maintained.
