Vic Freight

ONE LOGISTICS PARTNER.

Transport can be just the first step.

Once a container arrives at VIC Freight, our team can coordinate the next stages under the one roof — from container unpacking and freight handling through to palletising, storage and final delivery.

For freight requiring additional services, we can also coordinate AQIS inspections, fumigation and other requirements through our facilities.

Fewer handovers. Clear communication. One team coordinating your freight from container to final destination.

Delivery plans don't always go to plan.

Sites get delayed. Delivery dates change. Projects move. Sometimes a container simply can't go where it was originally scheduled to go.

VIC Freight can provide container storage at our Brooklyn yard, giving you another option when your delivery timing changes.

We can coordinate collection, storage and subsequent delivery when your site is ready, helping you keep the movement under one logistics provider.

For upcoming storage requirements, speak with our team.

Modern equipment. Greater capacity. Keeping your freight moving.

Investing in our fleet isn't simply about adding more trucks — it's about building the capacity and flexibility to better support our customers.

This year we've continued that investment with three new trucks and our Hammar SL26 sideloader, strengthening our ability to manage container movements across Melbourne and regional Victoria.

As VIC Freight continues to grow, our focus remains the same: reliable equipment, experienced people, proactive communication and service our customers can depend on.

There's plenty happening behind the scenes between receiving your booking and completing your delivery.

Once a new booking is entered into our system, you'll receive an automated booking confirmation. This should have the correct address, vessel, drop type and door direction, so double check and send us a quick email if you spot any mistakes.

From there, our operations team monitors the vessel and terminal status.

Terminal slots can't be secured until the container has physically discharged and becomes Ready — but if you've provided a preferred delivery day, we'll already have it noted.

Once Ready, we'll work to secure a suitable terminal slot and communicate the available delivery window.

It's all part of keeping you informed and your freight moving with as little fuss as possible.

Tip: If you send us a booking and don't receive your system-generated confirmation, please check with our team to ensure it has been received.

October is here — and for the freight industry, the lead-up to the end of the year is well underway.

As import volumes build ahead of Christmas, increased demand can place additional pressure on vessel schedules, terminal availability, transport capacity and warehousing.

If you already know what's coming, now is the time to start the conversation.

Providing forecasts and upcoming requirements early gives our operations team greater opportunity to plan transport, warehouse capacity and delivery requirements around your freight.

Planning ahead doesn't eliminate every disruption — but it gives us more options when conditions change.

Have upcoming Melbourne volumes? Let our team know.

📅 Did you know you can request a preferred delivery day before your container is available?

While delivery slots can't be booked until a container has discharged and its status changes to "Ready", letting our operations team know your preferred delivery timing in advance helps us plan ahead.

For example, if you're aiming for a 2nd or 3rd free day delivery, we'll note your request and, once the container becomes available, work to secure the earliest suitable terminal slot to match your preferred timeframe.

Planning ahead allows us to:
✔ Understand your preferred delivery date
✔ Prioritise bookings as soon as containers become available
✔ Better coordinate deliveries during busy periods
✔ Help minimise unnecessary storage or delays

The earlier we know your requirements, the better positioned we are to work towards your preferred delivery schedule. Because great logistics is all about planning ahead.

It’s always a pleasure working alongside businesses that share our commitment to great service, communication and looking after their customers. We’re proud to work with some fantastic freight forwarders and appreciate the trust they place in VIC Freight. 🤝

Here's what our client had to say about Gayan and Mathew.

Clear communication and bookings sent on time, every time. Thank you, Gayan and Mathew Liversidge (Cartage Supervisor), for making us a dream to work with.

And thank you to the team at VIC Freight for your continued support and partnership.

When everyone's in sync, cargo moves in harmony.

A quick reminder that tomorrow is the AFL Grand Final public holiday in Victoria.

With the shortened working week, we encourage customers to send through upcoming transport, warehouse and container requirements as early as possible to assist with planning.

If you have movements requiring attention around the public holiday, please speak with our team ahead of time.

We hope everyone enjoying the long weekend has a safe one!
