Imports for Mine Sites in Central Qld
An ongoing job that we are involved in is deliveries to mine sites throughout central Queensland. This has the following process:
- Collect the container(s) from the Port of Brisbane
- Return to our depot in Hemmant & unpack the conveyor belts
- De-hire the shipping container
- Load out Semi’s with the conveyor belts
- Deliver to site when the customer requires
Unpacking the container in Brisbane and delivering the freight loose has the following benefits:
- Take away the risk of detention charges to the shipping line for the hire of the shipping container
- The site may not have the equipment suitable to unpack the freight from the container
- For a smaller quantity of container imports, this is far more cost effective as you do not need to transport a container back and therefore cheaper transport costs for the one way delivery.
